Matthew 25 Contains Jesus' Birthday Wish List! 

This Christmas, let's not forget the birthday boy!

In Matthew 25, Jesus makes a list of the kinds of gifts that honor him. He says when we give those gifts to the least of our brothers and sisters, we give them to Him. ENLACE specializes in offering the gifts Jesus listed:

-Food for the hungry
-Water for the thirsty
-Clothes for the naked
-Love for the stranger

"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you visited me."  -Matthew 25:35-36

Give a gift Jesus asked for, dedicate it to someone who follows Him, and brighten their day with an ENLACE Christmas e-card!

Love for the Stranger

At ENLACE, we believe that poverty is the result of broken relationships— with each other, ourselves, and with God.

A Note About Gift Designations
ENLACE helps churches engage communities in each of the project types featured above—food security, water access, seamstress training, church coaching—each year. We are generally able to direct gifts to the projects featured, but it is ultimately the community itself that chooses which projects we'll fund, as those communities will donate an equal or larger amount toward the project in the form of locally-mobilized labor, materials, and financial resources. This is ENLACE's way of ensuring community ownership and project sustainability while doubling your impact.
