Winter outreach
Each year the HTK community supports Anglicare Children and Families (foster children) with a range of crochet and knitted items to support families through the winter. Members of our church family are invited to produce or buy a range of items for children from babies to teenagers to wear or use through the Winter months. These may include:
- clothing
- beanies
- scarves
- toys
- teddy bears
- rugs.
Completion date: 31st July
Completed items are collected at the HTK Church Office for distribution through Anglicare.
Christmas outreach
We also support Anglicare Children and Families with Christmas gifts each year.
A Christmas Tree is placed at the back of the church containing 100 tags with the name of a child and their age. Members of our church family are invited to select a tag/s that represent children they would like to buy a gift for. Once gifts are purchased, they are placed under the tree and a silver ornament is placed on the tree.
The gifts are placed under the tree in gift bags with the identification tag attached to the bag (gifts are not to be individually wrapped, for ease of checking prior to distribution through Anglicare).
