Month of Meals Campaign

Month of Meals Campaign – Nourished AND Loved

Thanks for your interest in the Month of Meals Campaign! This is a simple but meaningful way to teach the value of caring for others. Just picture the children, teens, and adults in your church placing one of these little cardboard houses on the kitchen table. For a couple of weeks, the needs of the kids at Christian City Children’s Village become a focal point of conversation. The value of compassion is being reinforced. Then, imagine the fun of dropping in coins at the end of the day and knowing that a child from a wounded background will be eating nutritious meals because of your generosity.

How great it will be to have the children of your church bring their “cottages” to the front of worship and combine their gifts with all the others, and just have the visual of sacrifice there for all to see.

Get the Whole Church Involved

Get the whole church involved by inviting families and individuals to take a “cardboard cottage” home and fill it up. All ages can help provide nutritious meals for one Children’s Village cottage. $1000 will feed 10 children for one month! The Month of Meals campaign is fairly simple, and any church of any size can have a huge impact on the lives of abandoned and neglected children and teens who live at Christian City Children’s Village.
