With this beautiful warm sunny weather, it seems early to think of Christmas and preparing a generous  Christmas for our annual Children’s Aid Society Christmas Families.
The Board of Trustees has approved the congregation’s providing Christmas gifts for families in need. We ask for families where there is the greatest need. This year we have two young single parent families led by mothers with one family with three children, two boys and  one girl and the other family with two children, one boy and one girl.
Linda and John Upcott have again generously agreed to shop for the two families. We plan to have the gifts ready and in clear plastic bags available for viewing on December 4.
If you wish to contribute toward the purchase of gifts, including grocery gift cards, to  fill the wish list of these two families,  please do so when convenient, preferably by November 27 but donations will be accepted until December 31.
Thank you for your consideration.
Helen Moore
