The Deacons Giving Tree (adopting families for Christmas)
"electronic" and at the church this year!
If you are a fan of the classic "How the Grinch Stole Christmas!" you are familiar with Cindy Lou Who. She is the girl that single-handedly saved Christmas by showing the Grinch the true giving spirit of Christmas and showing him he was loved. Remember, his heart grew three sizes?

The Deacons, again this year, are looking for people with big hearts to help us provide Christmas gifts for 70 local children. We exceeded our goal last year, and we know we can do it again this year with your heart (help).
We are adopting 70 local children for Christmas. Instead of buying presents and wrapping them as we have in the past, we have simplified our system to be more COVID friendly.
