We are looking for teenage helpers! This exciting
program is fun and will bring special meaning to
economically deprived children. We are asking pre-teens and teenagers to help paint,
repair, wrap, and tag toys.
If you have a teenage son or daughter, please encourage
him/her to join us for whatever length of time possible.
Hopefully, some teenagers will be available to deliver these
gifts. During the month a group of adults will meet to
discuss what is needed for Santa's Workshop. They are
enthusiastic and look forward to planning this event.
On Sunday, Dec. 3rd, teenagers will gather to
decorate the hall so it will look like Santa's Workshop.
Christmas music and refreshments will add to our
festivities. You too, are more than welcome to join
us. If your children have old toys in good or fairly good
condition, please bring them to the Parish Hall,
beginning the week of Nov. 13. We're looking forward
to a wonderful Santa's Workshop! |
