A Gift to Give | The Heart Behind the Event

A Gift to Give is a special Christmas event hosted by The Rock at Noonday in partnership with Crossroads for Women, an organization dedicated to helping women rebuild their lives through healing, stability, and support.

Our heart behind this event is to provide women and their children with a day filled with love, joy, and dignity. Through a Christmas lunch, family activities, self-care services, and the opportunity for mothers to personally select gifts for their children. We want every woman to feel seen, valued, and celebrated.

This event also allows us to introduce these women to our Esperanza Women’s Day Center, a safe, trauma-informed space offering resources and support to women in crisis. By welcoming them into our facility, we hope to build trust and familiarity so that if they ever need our services, they know where to turn.

As a volunteer, you play a vital role in bringing this vision to life. Whether you’re serving meals, assisting with activities, helping mothers’ shop for gifts, or simply offering a warm smile, every interaction is an opportunity to show the love of Christ. We encourage you to serve with compassion, engage in meaningful conversations, and offer encouragement and prayer when welcome.

Our prayer is that through your kindness and willingness to serve, these women and children leave knowing they are loved, valued, and never alone. What may seem like a small act of service could plant a seed of hope that lasts far beyond this Christmas event.
