Hi everyone,
I am on vacation but I wanted to take this opportunity to update you on Hope for Christmas.
I am super excited about what God is going to do at Bethany on Saturday, December 10. We are hosting a Christmas event for over 200 families and I want you to be a part of what is going to happen here. I believe you will truly be blessed by participating and giving of yourself to those in need. We will have a Christmas Party with a lot of activities for them to enjoy, the children will get their pictures made with Santa in the North Pole, and get to pick out a gift for their parent in the Santa Workshop area. Each family will receive gifts for their children and a bag of food for a Christmas meal.
To make this happen here is what we need:
850 volunteer opportunities (460 just on December 10) We have a huge need for hospitality, parking, and Elf Travelers

500 + cans of corn, green beans, gravy, boxes of stuffing, macaroni & cheese, candied yams, cranberry sauce, and boxed desserts.
Toy donations for children 0 to 18
Secret Santa donations so children can get a gift for a parent

What a great opportunity to have an impact on 1,500 people’s lives
