Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
Thank you to everyone for your support for our Caln ministry. After all these years, you continue to amaze me with all that you to support our kids at Caln. Not only were all the Angel Tree tags taken, but despite the weather, all gifts were returned on time. I especially want to thank my elves: Terry, Rosemary, Renay, Pat, and the entire Seekers group for their help on delivery day.
We delivered gifts for 24 children in 11 families, along with a bag of toys, courtesy of our friend John Lafferty, and, because of the generosity of your online donations, we were able to provide a Giant gift card for each of the 11 families, and winter coats for 12 other children in need.
Principal Renee Flores and Guidance Counselor Katherine Christopher, our wonderful partners at Caln, helped us unload the gifts. They thank you for your generosity, not just at Christmas, but all year.
One of our favorites, Jammies in January, is back! We will be collecting warm pajamas in sizes 5-14. Perhaps you can take advantage of those after Christmas sales. If you are able to donate in January, the collection bin will be in its usual location at the top of the stairs from the main parking lot. Pajamas will be due Sunday, January 25.
Thank you for your continued support and prayers for this ministry,
Holly Orr, Caln School Coordinator
