Our church buys gifts or the members buy gifts for different ages, of boys and girls and brings them to the Christmas store in the activities building, where they are sorted out on tables. There is very wide assortment for all ages.

Then the children, youths, a few at a time, with a church volunteer, are allowed to come and choose one big thing and one small item, which is then taken and wrapped in Christmas wrappings.

While waiting for the wrapping the gospel is presented to them. So they hear the story of Jesus Christ, forgiveness of sins,and Salvation. God's goodness, mercy, love, and compassion. Prayers of thanksgiving and blessing. Then they take the gifts with them. This is done before Christmas week.

That’s a wonderful Christmas outreach project that your church provides to the community. Yes, I forgot to include our many local community churches in my list of charities that I trust. They do a great job. :-)
