LifeSong's Advent for Orphans

This year, make Advent about more than just eating chocolate.



The Advent for Orphans Calendar is a special way to celebrate not only the anticipation of the birth of our Savior, but also a unique and creative opportunity to show love to orphans. **Great for families with kids! Read the impact Advent for Orphans had on families in past years.

How it works:

  1. Order your Advent for Orphans Calendar(s) HERE.
  2. Starting December 1st, read the daily scriptures listed on the back of tab, collect money for the daily gift (example: Today, give $0.20 for every coat you own), and pray for orphans using the daily prayer guide. 
  3. Collect donations late December/early January and send to Lifesong (donate online or send check to PO Box 40, Gridley, IL 61744 with memo: Advent).
