Christmas Eve Offering

This year’s Christmas Eve offering will go to the Tirana Christian School in Tirana, Albania

After years of hurdles, red tape, closed doors, and faithful prayers, God has made a way for our partners in Tirana, Albania, to move forward in opening the Tirana Christian School. Landi and Deanne Sula serve in a country where the church hardly exists, believers make up less than 1% of the population, and the education system is often corrupt. For the burgeoning church there to be able to give their children a Christ-centered education would be an opportunity to shine light in the darkness, and make an impact for generations to come. This Christmas Eve, we hope to raise at least $46,000 to make this God-sized dream a reality. Watch for more stories and information about the Tirana Christian School coming soon, as we prepare to give back this Christmas Eve.

How to Give

You can give any time through the end of the year by noting “Christmas Offering” with your gift. Give online below, during the regular offering time, or mail a gift to the church office.
