We need your help to assemble this simple treat and evangelization tool, made of two chocolates in a pouch, with the message “God’s gifts are greater than silver and gold.” It can be assembled by people of all ages. Take a few minutes before or after the Community Dinner to make a treat with family and friends, and send the good news of Jesus to those we serve.
