Christmas is a time of remarkable generosity. God gave the most generous gift of all when he sent Jesus to us, and we find while celebrating this life-changing event many friends, neighbours and members of our wider community who don’t normally come to church feel drawn to do so. This means it is the perfect time to help visitors experience the joy of generosity - whether that is in giving, receiving, or both!
Making 'Give a Little' look festive using Canva
To help churches make the most of this season, the Digital Giving Team has created a Give A Little campaign template and a GWD Attract Loop image that you can use to encourage giving opportunities.
Below you can download ready to use plug-and-play animation screens for Give A Little users, as well as a branded graphic to use for a GWD Attract Loop.
If you would like to edit and customise in Canva*, here are the Give A Little templates for the Donation screen and Thank you screen.
Here is a step-by-step guide on how to edit, download, and use these templates and a video walkthrough taking you through the process.
