How do I order my gift?

- You and the recipient will have the joy of knowing that this gift is helping to create a just and peaceful society and a world where everyone has a safe place to belong.
Not sure what to choose?
- Clean water for a family in Sri Lanka. This beautiful gift will help ensure families have clean water to drink; keeping them safe from waterborne diseases and enabling them to safely water their crops and have food to eat.
- A kitchen garden for a Syrian refugee living in Jordan. This gift will provide a Syrian woman with the skills and knowledge needed to cultivate her very own kitchen garden.
- A gift of bees! Farmers in Zimbabwe are extremely vulnerable to the dry, harsh conditions of droughts making it difficult to produce crops. This sweet Gift for Peace will give a farmer everything they need to start beekeeping and produce their own delicious honey.
Whatever you choose, you can be sure each and every gift is having a life changing impact.

The Christmas Bowl 2022
Give Hope
Share God’s love with a refugee going hungry this Christmas.
This year is already shaping up to be one of the toughest in recent memory. With the cost of living rapidly increasing for many of us, both here at home and abroad, there is much uncertainty about the future.
In these difficult times, the Christmas Bowl not only expresses our unity in Christ, it provides a powerful way for Australian Christians to share hope through practical Christian action, led by our committed local partners working in the toughest conditions around the world.
You can find out more, register, and download resources from the website.
