Church of Beatitudes has been busy this month

From Gayle Lawson:

We collected 349 pairs of men’s, women’s and children’s socks.  These were given to ShoeBox Ministry to be handed out to the less fortunate that find themselves living on the streets.

We also adopted 2 families from Maryland School.  A total of 7 children, ranging from 2 to 11 years of age.  The children each received 5 presents consisting of a pair of new shoes, a new outfit, a toy, a book and a scooter.  The 2 year old received a Big Wheel bike.  Our 2 families also received a box filled with every day household cleaning items.  

Church of Beatitudes wishes everyone a joyful holiday season!
