Last year at our church, someone came up with the idea of a Christmas tree decorated in angels.
Instead of buying heaps of Christmas cards for everyone, the idea was to write your Christmas message on an angel to put on the tree as a single card to the whole church community. The money saved on buying cards could then be donated to charity.
They are doing this again this year, and I think it’s a fantastic idea, one that could work in other community groups too 🙂
That is a really nice idea, and has a number of good features
– a tree of angels sounds beautiful
– saves money for the families of charities
– it saves trees and paper production so is good for the environment, too
It would be great to hear if anyone else uses this idea for Christmas.
christmas time is coming again and i would be sending christmas cards to many of my friends.
Thanks for joining in, but I wonder if MissieK’s idea has influenced you to think of other ways to send Christmas messages instead of sending out lots of cards this year?
i would have to make more christmas cards becuase next month is december already
Your blog is great I think that you may want to translate it to other languages.
