As is our practice at Albany Creek, our Christmas Services loose offerings are donated to two charities (that have been approved by Church Council).  In 2022, we  supported the Christmas Bowl appeal and the Homeless Outreach Access Program (HOAP)   administered by Encircle. 

Gifts to the Christmas Bowl in 2022 supported projects from Zimbabwe to India, Jordan to Kenya and those affected by emergencies like we’re seeing in the Ukraine.  These projects will help families heal from trauma and rebuild their lives.

Encircles HOAP assists people to navigate pathways to access accommodation or housing by providing a brief intervention of support through advice and information, advocacy, and practical support.
