Snyder’s Gift Catalog is available!
Looking for a unique gift this Christmas, Snyder’s Gift Catalog is your answer. The gift catalog contains many gift ideas that will benefit our 3 international partnerships and our national partnership in Kentucky. There are some local giving ideas as well. You may purchase the gifts with cash, check, or even online giving, but you must accompany your payment with a gift card, so we know where to send the money. The gift catalog will help us continue to invest in the relationships of our partnership with Haiti, Kenya, and Myanmar. The gift catalogs are available around the Church.
