This Christmas celebrate your connections to the AMAA. Make a gift to remember a loved one, commemorate a special occasion or honor a special person in your life.

As you plan your charitable Christmas giving there are many ways you can support the AMAA. We encourage you to visit our Giving section for the various options.

In the history of the world it is known that the greatest gift ever given is one which is still celebrated today, well over 2,000 years later. Celebrating the birth of Jesus, the light who came into the world, homes are prepared to be filled with love and laughter among family and friends. But for countless individuals, young and old, all over the world, their homes remain unlit and cold.

For many, joy stems from a belief that through faith trouble does not last. Through some of our own experiences, and those of our ancestors, faith encourages us to persevere and experience His blessings of renewal, finding the oasis after many days of having walked through the desert. Faith is the anchor to the cycle of life, knowing that once the long hours of the night’s darkness pass there is hope knowing sunrise will break on the horizon.

It is to situations like this that we are called. The Armenian Missionary Association of America (AMAA) remains a beacon of light, carrying forth the promise of joy and hope to those who need to be uplifted. Your support to our annual Christmas appeal is instrumental. Every dollar received is one more student to whom the AMAA can offer a quality education, one more family the AMAA helps leave behind the destruction of Syria and onward to a new life, one more villager provided a livelihood, and one more individual who receives the Good News.

Help us distribute the gifts of love, joy and hope to the individuals served through our programs and services. May we be reminded of our one true hope, as God’s love was revealed among us ”

He sent His one and only Son into the world, so that we might live through Him.” (1 John 4:9) We all have much to celebrate this Season because of God’s extravagant love. May we continue to be His messengers to all those in need.

May God bless you and your family during this Christmas season.
