Gift giving is a process. Jesus is the ultimate gift, but He has given each of us gifts. How we use those gifts is our gift to Him. Using our funds wisely and helping others is a wonderful gift He would appreciate.
Volunteer to ring the bell or make sure to drop something in the Salvation Army's Red Kettle located in front of Alco.
Now for the gift certificates - remember just about every business in the Heart City has gift certificates. If you’re still stymied, then how about a gift certificate to any one of a number of hair dressers in town? Men and women need their hair cut, so do little ones. Some have tanning booths - so give the gift of summer sun!
Maybe grandma and grandpa have EVERYTHING under the summer sun...but they’re still going to need weekly groceries! Henderson’s IGA has gift cards for that, so does Scotty’s Ranchland Foods.
What about the gift of r-e-l-a-x-a-t-i-o-n? Who wouldn’t want to be the recipient of that during the holidays? A massage by Olga Anderson, Gail Fitch, or ortho bionomy by Jan Smith would be a wonderful stress reliever - especially since they have gift certificates to fit in with the recipients’ busy schedule. (Why not pick up one for yourself while you’re there? It will make you nicer too.)
A gift certificate for a night out would be appreciated by frazzled moms and dads with kids! Give a certificate for a great meal at Jordan’s, Cedar Canyon, or the Peppermill.
Pick up some certificates for a date with grandkids or nieces and nephews at the Jewell II Theatre. Maybe they’d like some certificates for a quick dinner before the movie at Subway and McDonalds!
There’s something nice about a gift certificates - they're a gift can keep on giving!
