I have a gift idea for elderly women that has been greatly appreciated by the recipient. So many times they want to do something for the Lord, but feel they can do nothing. I fill a basket with cards, get well, sympathy, thinking of you, blank cards, etc. I add postage stamps and a large print list of names and addresses of our church family with room to add more of their own.

Popcorn/movie night. Ice cream & all the makins & fixins. Pasta maker/fondue kettle. The Chosen dvds. Coupon for babysitting. Personalized throws. Family of 5 children - reams of paper (school work, writing, artwork!) A years supply of kool-aid or favorite drink mixes. A good night sky book. A picnic basket with plates, napkins & utensils. A llama (kidding!) ♡

We always give a calendar with fotos of the grandkids to my parents and the in-laws. They really appreciate it :) Also, I love giving a one year magazine subscription to someone with a special hobby or interest. For instance if they love to cook, a monthly magazine with seasonal recipes or if they love to go camping, an outdoor / hiking magazine. This way, they can “use it up” and pass it on after reading through it, but still have a whole year of fresh ideas.

@susankultys7745 9 ай бұрын

I love, love, love that you talk about Jesus on your videos. Bibles, prayer, journaling - all of it. I love the prayers that you say at the end of your videos. Thank you so much. What an incredible gift this is to me, all through the year. ❤

They made a cute basket with a couple pool towels and water toys. Movie baskets with a dvd, candy, and popcorn are fun too. Kids get so much at Christmas that it is nice for them to get an activity. Gift certificates for ice cream, ice skating or children’s museum.
