C-Day " Cookies For Christ" was birthed in 1981. That year it started out with several prisons during the month of December, taking in a few thousand homemade cookies. It grew into an annual event of thousands of cookies being delivered to many prisons around the State of Florida. Delivering over 100,000 per year. After 9/11 only packaged store bought cookies could go in under the Florida Dept. of Corrections. Now, they no longer allow any food items to be taken into the prisons.
We have transitioned, going back to our roots of homemade cookies. We will be taking them to the kids across the State of Florida and the women in Work Release Programs.
C-Day is now: "C-Day, Taking Christmas & Christ To Kidz!" We want our program during December to be a Christmas Celebration. We want it to really stand out as something different, where the children feel special as if they were having a family homemade Christmas. The kind you would want your child or grandchild to have, a Christmas to remember!
We share in music, testimonies and the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The cookies have been a representation of God's Love from the community. These anointed cookies, gifts, etc. are tangible proof to these children that they are special, that the community loves them and that God loves them! We have led thousands before in the prisons to the Lord because of these messages of love. It's time to share with a new generation the true reason for the season! Would you help us reach out to these at-risk children where many have no one?
