Thanksgiving Dinner
Mount Olive can handle your gift card purchases for you….. This
program is actively at work in many congregations. Mike and Sara
Weisenbaugh brought this idea to us from their previous Lutheran
Congregation….
Here are some of the companies for which Mount Olive can supply
gift cards:
• Walmart
• Best Buy,
• Home Depot,
• Lowes,
• Target,
• Sears,
• CVS/pharmacy,
• Walgreens,
• Subway,
• Starbucks,
• iTunes,
• JC Penny,
• Chili’s Bar and Grill
• Bath and Body Works
• Babies-R-Us,
• Toys-R-Us,
• Barnes & Noble,
• Bed Bath & Beyond,
• Borders,
• Red Lobster,
• Outback Steakhouse,
• Mobil, gas station,
• Shell gas station,
• Exxon,
• HEB,
• Randalls,
• Sam’s Club, etc…
You may use your cards at any store nation wide. Use them
just as you would use your cash or debit card. Some companies
allow you to pay your department store credit cards with them!
The only “catch” - if there is one - is that you need to plan
ahead for some of your purchases, and buy your gift cards with
the expectation of receiving your gift card a few days from the
date your purchase the card.
To help put this into perspective:
If one household spends $500.00/month at HEB for groceries at a
return of 2% the church could receive $10.00 from that family in
one month. Some, applying some math: $120.00 a year x 30
families is $3600.00 year just for groceries. If you plan holiday
shopping, commuting expenses, etc, the church could receive
proceeds as extra income!
Prayer Requests:
We had a great Fall Fun Day on October 28th. All 34 of our children
were present with their costumes. Even the teachers dressed in
special “attire” for this fun day. The children enjoyed the games,
treats, and special activities. Many of our parents came for this
event…..
