ANNUAL CHRISTMAS Events

Thank You for being a Piece of the Puzzle in participating in the Toys for Joys programs for the Children in the diverse communities within the Greater Daytona Beach cities/towns located throughout Volusia County.

IN 2023, AMD HAD HELPED THE IN HIS HOUSE OF RESTORATION CHURCH IN MAUI THAT MINISTERS TO THE COMMUNITY AND HAS A FOOD BANK FOR ALL WHO WERE AFFTECTED BY THE FIRES AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITY IN THE SURROUNDING AREA, as well as The Maui food bank.

The 10th Annual Christmas Toy Store 2025 will be TBD, we hope to know by September 2025.

If you go through Walmart’s Registry for Good website, choose Auxilium Manus DEO to purchase gifts cards, gifts/toys, clothing, and school supplies. 

TBD the distribution for the applications for the 10th Annual CHRISTMAS TOY STORE. 

       THE 10th ANNUAL CHRISTMAS TOY STORE WILL BE DETERMINED SOON.

    AMD WILL STILL BE GIVING TO LOCAL LOW-INCOME COMMUNITIES. WILL YOU HELP US HELP THEM? WE ARE NOW COLLECTING “TOYS FOR JOYS” FOR 2024. 

THE BOOK TITLED “WHEN HELPING HURTS: HOW TO ALLEVIATE POVERTY WITHOUT HURTING THE POOR OR YOURSELF” BY CORBETT & FIKKERT, 2 PASTORS WHO ACKNOWLEDGED IN THEIR MINISTRY/CHURCH, THE POOR ARE TIRED OF “US” TELLING THEM WHAT THEY NEED AND “ASSUMING” THE HEAD OF THE HOUSEHOLD IS NOT PROVIDING FOR THE FAMILY, AND WE WILL DO IT FOR THEM, WHEN THEY ARE CAPABLE OF PROVIDING. THE PROVISIONS MAY NOT BE EXTRAVAGANT, BUT THE POOR LOSES THEIR DIGNITY AND IS NOT EMPOWERED WHEN ORGS AND INDIVIDUALS ASSUME THEY ARE HELPING WHEN IN REALITY THEY ARE HURTING THE FAMILY UNIT. THESE FAMILIES DO NOT WANT A HANDOUT, BUT MAY NEED A LITTLE ASSISTANCE WHERE THEY ARE MAKING A CONTRIBUTION.

The 8th Annual Christmas Toy Store was being restructured where the parent may choose only three gifts (1-small, 1-medium, & 1-large). An application was picked up at the office at First Baptist Daytona church @ 10 First Baptist Parkway, Daytona Beach, 32124.

WHEN AMD HOSTED THE ANNUAL TOY STORE IN 2022, WE HAD ASKED FOR A SMALL DONATION AND THE “SHOPPER” CHOSE EITHER 3 GIFTS FOR $10.00 PLUS TWO GIFTS RECOMMENDED BY AMD, BUT WAIT, THEY GET TO CHOOSE THE GIFTS AND EACH CHILD RECEIVES A STOCKING W/ STOCKING STUFFERS, 1-2 ROLLS OF PAPER PER FAMILY, 1 ROLL OF SCOTCH TAPE, 1 BAG OF BOWS ALL FOR $10 PER KIDDO. THE 8th ANNUAL CHRISTMAS TOY STORE DONATIONS GOES BACK INTO THE COMMUNITY (CHURCH BENEVOLENT PROGRAM) TO HELP THOSE IN NEED OF ASSISTANCE WITH UTILITIES.  IF ONE SHOPS AT A CORPORATE STORE, ALL THE MONEY IS PROFIT AND STAYS IN THE POCKETS OF THE CORPORATION.  KEEPING CHRIST IN CHRISTMAS, WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER AND PRAY WITH THEM. TO SEE THEIR DEEP GRATITUDE WHERE THEY WERE ABLE TO CONTRIBUTE AND HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS, DURING THEIR TOUGH TIME. THEIR DONATION IS HELPING ANOTHER FAMILY WHO IS ALSO HAVING A TOUGH TIME WITH THE UTILITY BILL(S) OR CAREER DEVELOPMENT.
