Church hopes to serve 285 children this year
Grace United Methodist Church is entering the final week of this year’s Secret Santa program. Their goal is to serve 285 children ages 10 and under this year, and as of Monday night, they had sponsors for all but 14 children. Parents have submitted a list of three gifts for each child, and sponsors are asked to purchase at least one of the gifts, though they can get them all if they choose. Sponsors are also asked to include something in each package that relays the message of God’s love. The sponsorship drive runs through this Friday, December 9, and the last day to return gifts is December 10. Parents will be picking up the gifts on Tuesday, December 13. To sponsor a child, email graceumc_secretsanta@hotmail.com, or call 426-2776 and leave a message.
