Christmas Store

Experience a joyful shopping experience, free of charge.

The MLM Christmas Store is one of the largest gift-giving programs in the Greater Kansas City area. The store provides over 1,000 families with a joyful and dignified Christmas experience.

This year’s Christmas store will be returning to its original format of families selecting their gifts with the help of our shopping elves.

Each family member should expect a coat, clothing, and a gift. Each household should expect a small kitchen appliance or a blanket / quilt, a gift card to help purchase their meal, cookies, and a Bible or devotional.
