Look at the love we shared!

From the middle of November, we used our Reverse Advent Calendar to guide us in gathering items for those who are struggling through this Christmas Season. We had representatives from our churches in Oyen, Cereal, Alsask and Acadia Valley join in this giving... plus friends from Empress and other folk who just joined in because it was fun!

The last two boxes came in on December 11th... just in time for the Packing of the Community Christmas Hampers on the 13th & 14th. 

Our food gifts ... which covered the centre pews of the Gallery, filled up a 1/2 ton truck and a car. (thanks to the folk from FCSS for coming by to pick them up!)

Gifts of blankets and socks and toques and gloves anad toys filled over 6 large boxes (topped up by some donations from the Oyen Thrift Shop) and were sent to the Bissell Centre in Edmonton.

What a great collaboration by so many people to bring a little love into the world at Christmas Time!
