I was in Cracker Barrel the other day and almost forgot what month is was when I was greeted by mounds of Christmas decorations.

While it’s a bit early to bring out the Christmas tree, it’s not too early to begin planning GTN’s Christmas assistance project, The Wenceslas Project. This year we will again provide Christmas support to local families in need who have qualified through the interview process.  The goal of the project is simple, to share grace at Christmas.  GTN believes that this is one proper response we as Christians should have to the abundant grace that God has shown each of us.  What better response as Christians, those who received the abundant and amazing grace of God, than to spread God’s grace, and what better time of year to do so?  The Wenceslas Project was the founding ministry project for Grace to the Nations, and continues to be a great illustration of everything this ministry is about (John 10:16) by connecting the community of believers into the community of need.

We are seeking out sponsors to sign up early so that GTN can get an estimate on how many families we will be able to support this Christmas.  Consider making The Wenceslas Project part of your family’s Christmas.  It has revolutionized the way our family celebrates Christmas and many other families share the same testimony of The Wenceslas Project helping them restore the meaning of Christ back into their Christmas.

The site is still under construction but it is functional and being updated regularly. I must give my brother, Brad Nix at Maxsell Real Estate a big fat thanks for helping me build the site, he’s always been the bigger nerd. I noticed at one point a very scary reality, my chat log with my brother had more to do with html code than baseball, and we both love baseball.

Check back often as new content is added. We want to push you to the edge of ministry and we will soon be inviting, asking, collecting, and recruiting a whole new community that connects around this ministry. We look forward to having you on board and keeping you connected to each other and into the community of need.

What is the Wenceslas Project? The Wenceslas Project is an opportunity for the community of Grace to the Nations to share Christ’s love by providing Christmas gifts for a Grace to the Nations client family.

How can I get involved? You, your family, Sunday School class, church, civic organization, or business can get involved by signing up to sponsor a needy family. We ask that you sign up any time before November 30th.

When will I receive my adopted family’s information? You will receive your adopted family’s information between November 10th -December 2 (dates are subject to change and we will work with you). This information will include a list of all family members, clothing sizes for each member, the interests of children in the family, and needed household items. We will also provide a list of prayer needs for the family, and ask that you pray for them as you prepare for The Wenceslas Project.

When and where do I deliver my gifts? Gifts should be labeled with the sponsored family’s name and may be dropped off at a GTN collection site before the Project Celebration. Call for directions.

Can I meet my adopted family? Yes! We encourage families to join us at The Wenceslas Project Celebration, TBA
