Sending Christmas Gifts to Missionaries
The best way to send a monetary Christmas Gift to your missionaries is to give through the Ethnos360 Home Office. To ensure that your gifts arrive before Christmas, mail a check payable to Ethnos360 to arrive by Nov. 25 as described below or give online by Nov. 25.
Ethnos360 has limited the amount of individual non-taxable Christmas gifts to $250.00 that may be given to a missionary. For gifts over $250.00 the difference of the gift will be considered income to the missionary.
