The Christmas in August Promotion Kit 2008 celebrates 80 years of Christmas in August and is designed to help you lead your church or age-level group to be a part of the life-changing Christmas-in-August emphasis this year. If you are a WMU director or missions leader, you will find ideas to lead the entire church in the Christmas-in-August project. The activities in the kit can be used in conjunction with the August issues of GA Leader or Children in Action Leader, which include lessons and additional recipes for snacks, games, and a more in-depth study. Start for preschoolers also includes activities for preschoolers during the month of August.
This kit features posters, flyers, a children’s booklet, and presentation ideas to help spread the word about Christmas in August. A prayer calendar is included to guide the church body and individual families in prayer throughout August for the North American missionaries chosen for this year’s emphasis, as well as a list of the missionaries and their needs so you’ll know what to collect for them. The kit’s decoration ideas and recipes will help get people excited about Christmas in August!
