It’s finally December, which means CHRISTMAS is just around the corner!! We pray that your family will take the time to celebrate the TRUE meaning of the season – Christ’s birth. And to help you celebrate in a meaningful way, we have a list of Christmas gift items that are all about helping others in need, supporting Christian artists or giving to worthy causes. We pray this will allow ALL of our families to focus on Christ’s example of putting others above ourselves. Armour Up wishes you and your family a wonderful holiday season and a very Merry Christmas.
AU’s TOP TEN CHRISTMAS GIFT IDEAS:
10) SHOES! Not for you or your son, but for a child in Lusaka, Zambia. These children are in need of shoes to wear to school each day. Please consider purchasing a pair for $30 through the Arise Africa organization.
9) UNIQUE KERSHAW AUTOGRAPHED BALL! Your son MAY already have a Clayton Kershaw autograph just from being in the neighborhood, but I seriously doubt you have one THIS COOL. Check out this and other memorabilia on the Kershaw’s Challenge website. Every purchase in the KC store benefits Kershaws Challenge, which in turn supports 4 beneficiaries all over the world (Cure International Hospital, Behind Every Door, Dream Center & Arise Africa).
8) TIM HAWKINS CONCERT TICKETS! Tim Hawkins is a Christian comedian who is truly hilarious. Yes, his jokes can be corny at times, but I promise you will be happy you took your family and friends to see him live in Allen, TX on Sunday, April 23, 2017 @ Cottonwood Creek Baptist Church at 6pm. This event is appropriate for the ENTIRE family, and that’s hard to find anymore :). Click here for tickets. Let’s support artists like Tim Hawkins who love to make people laugh with good clean humor!! (to play video, please click on the BLUE TITLE of post at the top of this email).
7) CHRIS TOMLIN in CONCERT – APRIL 21st & April 22nd at Verizon Theater in Grand Prairie, TX. Musical guests include Big Daddy Weave, Phil Wickham, Zach Williams and many more. Make this a special family night, grab some friends or even a mother/son night with other mothers/sons. The possibilities are endless!!! And Chris Tomlin never disappoints.
6) MONKEY T-SHIRT benefitting the Penelope House Project (founded by our very own, Marcy Simmons). Every purchase from the Penelope House Project goes to the Penelope House – a battered women’s shelter in Mobile, Alabama. PEACE BEGINS AT HOME.
5) DEVOTIONAL BOOK! If your son does not have a nightly ritual of reading a devotion before going to bed, this is a great time to START!!! It’s never too late. Besides, as the kids get older, bedtime is the ONLY time they talk to you. So take full advantage and discuss what really matters.
4) TICKETS TO CHALLENGE UP 2017 with Clayton Kershaw! Surprise your husband and son this holiday with tickets to an awesome father/son event! Challenge Up will take place on January 16th (MLK day) from 6-8pm at Scotland Yard. All proceeds will benefit Kershaw’s Challenge.
3) PILLOWS! Why not sprinkle a little Jesus throughout the house?! These would make a perfect gift for a friend (even if that friend is yourself).
2) SHAKEN by Tim Tebow! I have not personally read this book, but the reviews seems great. And I am encouraged by any professional sports figure that discusses the positive influence of Jesus Christ on his life. There aren’t too many left out there!! May be worth a read!
1) Armour UP gear! We have several NIKE dri fit shirts, HP flag t-shirts, Texas flag t-shirts, etc. with our very own AU logo. ALL SHIRTS are $20 this week only (NIKE dri fit shirts & Comfort Color shirts are normally $30). (This applies only to those shirts that are in stock and in the correct size!) Please contact us at info@armourupdallas.com to inquire about a size/color of shirt. Thanks so much and again this offer is only good THIS WEEK (Dec. 5th-Dec. 9th).
We wish all of you an amazing Christmas season and a very happy new year!!
