There are families impacted by incarceration in your neighborhood who don’t have a church to call home. With Prison Fellowship® Angel Tree, you can reach them!
Autumn’s dad went to prison when she was about 10 years old. A year or so into his incarceration, he signed up his daughters for Angel Tree®. Autumn and her sister were invited to an Angel Tree Christmas party at a local church. At the lively gathering, Autumn and the other children of incarcerated men and women heard the Good News of Christ and received their gifts.
I just remember feeling really loved. ... I just remember being surrounded by a bunch of people who were just so loving and giving and serving.
—Autumn
Today, there are 1.5 million children with a parent in prison in the U.S. You can help give these children valuable Christmas memories—and connect them to your church—through Angel Tree.
When you sign up for Angel Tree, you help connect children to their parental figure through a gift and personal message at Christmas.
But it doesn’t stop there.
Many families with an incarcerated loved one need support, both spiritually and physically. Your church can make an impact in your community all year long by investing in Angel Tree families. Many families say the most meaningful part of Angel Tree wasn’t the gift the child received, but the relationships they made with church volunteers. Your church can be part of this.
