Love is a gift catalogs are now available in the narthex, or go to
www.elca.org/giving to order your Good Gifts online. You can make a difference by giving Good Gifts this year!
How does it work?
Make your gift choices from the Love is a gift catalog or shop online at
www.elca.org/giving. For example, this year instead of buying someone another electrical gadget, you can make a donation to ELCA World Hunger or buy a pig or goat in that person's name. (Who needs a mini electric pepper mill with light*? Instead, you might save a child's life with fresh goat's milk!) (Note: To buy animals, click on "Care for the world's hungry" and then "Visit the Global Barnyard.")
After you select and pay for your Good Gift, you can tell your loved ones about the gift by using one of the cards provided at the back of the catalog or (if you buy an animal) one of the "God's Global Barnyard" cards available in the narthex. If you order online, you can send an electronic card or print a downloadable card on your printer.
And if you still want something tangible for the person to open, why not pick up a small fair trade item (such as chocolate or a handmade ornament) to go along with your Good Gift card?

*There really is such a thing!
Our Stewardship and Finance Teams are working together with Thrivent's Simply Giving program to soon offer you the ability to make donations on-line for special events and appeals. The website is up and running for operational testing, and will soon be linked to from our Stewardship and News pages.
