How many children

can you ensure

have a gift at Christmas?

Toys for Jesus was created for the purpose of sharing the love of Jesus at Christmas.  Parents who struggle with finances in the home are concerned about how they will give their children presents on Christmas morning.  We hope to make Christmas joyful instead of stressful by offering parents the opportunity to select new toys to give their children at no cost.  They choose from many new toys they would find in local stores.

How many people

can you influence

with the Gospel?

Each September, the Iredell County Fairgrounds holds a fair for the community.  Member churches serve the traveling fair workers by giving toiletry items, haircuts, laundry assistance and serve free meals.  Volunteers show God’s love by serving food and sharing the Gospel message with fair workers around the tables.

Location

Iredell County Fairgrounds in Troutman, NC

Serve

SYBA church members may volunteer to serve behind-the-scenes or with fair workers.  Volunteers can collect hygiene items, assemble toiletry bags and encourage others to donate during the summer months. 

Volunteers can serve on-site in September several ways:  give haircuts, donate meals, clean tables, transport items from SYBA offices and talk with workers.

Give

Any individual, church or business can donate to the Fair Ministry.  Church groups can sign-up to provide all of one item for all workers.  Donations may be financial or tangible. 

Here are suggestions of items you can donate:
