Please consider donating to our Christmas Appeal

The Christmas Story reminds us of the importance of giving to the most vulnerable. The first Christmas gifts were given by the Magi to the newborn Christ Child and his family. This family desperately needed these gifts. They had already been forcibly relocated from their homes by the government. Shortly after receiving the gift they were forced to flee from this new home. Jesus spent his early years as a refugee in a foreign land. The gifts of the Mag together with the kindness of a community of strangers in that foreign land ensured that the baby Jesus grew into someone who changed the world.

For many years Pymble has supported the work of Rev. Bill Crews Foundation (formally The Exodus Foundation) at Christmas through the donation of non-perishable food items, personal care essentials and gifts. These essential and simple donations are used by the foundation for those most in need. The difference that these small gifts make those receiving them cannot be over-emphasised. Donating gifts is simple way that we, as the Pymblecommunity, can bring hope and joy at Christmas to people we will never meet, but know matter in our community, because everyone matters. Through your support you can give the gift of a smile to the face of a child and family who are scared, worried and hungry. And who knows what this might do into the future? It is very possible, that these simple gifts, like the gifts of the Magi to the Holy family can change the world.
