Shop affordably for Christmas Morning
There’s nothing like seeing your child unwrap a gift you picked just for them—pure joy and excitement on Christmas morning. However, this might often be the first to go from your budget if you are left constantly making trade offs when providing for your essential needs. This Christmas, you don’t have to make that trade-off. At the Christmas Market, you can buy your child a special gift without breaking your budget!
Details: Parents only · 1 gift per child/grandchild · Free event · Gifts sold for pennies on the dollar
No registration, simply come and shop!

Empowering Parents. Sharing Joy.
Every parent deserves the joy of choosing gifts for their own kids.
That’s why the Christmas Market turns donations into dignity—offering brand new toys at drastically reduced prices for local working families. Your generosity helps make Christmas morning possible for dozens of households right here in Big Rapids.
How It Works
You and others give new toys and gifts for the Market, families buy those gifts at a reduced cost letting their money go further, and all proceeds pay it forward to Angels of Action.
Support the Market
- Drop off new toys at St. Peter’s School & Church
- Give Financially to buy toys - Mark donations with “Christmas Market”
- Volunteer - Help set-up, welcome, serve, and clean-up - Click Below
Pathways. Not to-do lists
You are invited to imitate Jesus. This is what we call a “wholly connected journey” because it is life where every part is connected to the One who gives peace. Body, Spirit, Mind, Relationships, and more.
We believe that there is no one pathway that every person must follow.
There are things every person’s journey shares as we follow Jesus and imitate Him.
At St. Peter’s, our hope is everyone: RECEIVE God’s Gifts, CONNECT with People, ENGAGE Your Crowd, MULTIPLY Your Impact.
Look below to see ways to RECEIVE, CONNECT, ENGAGE, and MULTPIPLY.
Our Dream Disciple
The goal of our Pathway is that everyone would grow as a disciple/follower of Jesus in four roles. These are our Dream Disciple Roles and they reflect the pattern of life we see in Jesus, His Apostles, and His disciples today. We aren’t trying to be perfect, but to reflect the One who is perfect, so that His peace would amplify into more lives.
Connect with us to take your next step on the path of peace in Jesus and grow as a Dream Disciple!
