Christmas Angel Mission

Our Christmas Angel Mission ministers to  children whose parents are in prison or rehab.

Volunteer for the Christmas Angel Mission*

The children of prison inmates, ex-offenders, and people struggling with addiction often miss not only a parent at Christmas, but also Christmas gifts.  


Our Christmas Angel Mission ministers to these children by hosting Christmas parties and providing gifts for the children. 


We could not operate this special ministry for children without our volunteers from churches, businesses, and individual families.




*Mission Gate is not affiliated with Prison Fellowship Angel Tree or Salvation Army Angel Tree.

How your church can participate

How your church can participate

How your church can participate

Churches can set up an angel tree at Christmas so members can donate gifts for children.

  

You can set up a tree in your church and invite everyone's participation. 


Choose Option A or Option B


Option A

  1. Choose a coordinator for your church.
  2. We will send you paper angels that have only the age and gender of a child.
  3. Set up and decorate your tree or display table.
  4. Members take an angel, buy a gift, then put the gift under the tree.
  5. Either your Sunday School or youth group throws a gift-wrapping event, or each gift-giver wraps their gift and security attaches the paper angel.
  6. Your church delivers the wrapped gifts to the party location the day of the Christmas Angel party. If that's not possible, they can deliver them ahead of time; call (636) 391-8560 for instructions.


Option B

  1. Contact us and we'll send paper angels to hang on your church's Christmas tree or display table. Each angel has a child's age, gender, and name, plus contact information for the child's guardian.
  2. Set up and decorate your tree or display table.
  3. Invite each church member to choose an angel. The member then calls the guardian, listed on the angel,  for gift suggestions for the child.
  4. Members purchase the gifts and deliver them directly to the child’s home after calling ahead.
