Busy Day

While FR John went and did the funeral service
I delivered to several families.
1 school teacher who wanted items for needy children.
1 young man who needed linens for his new apartment.
1 young Private in the Army who will be deported next week,and
wanted to get clothes size 2t for his son.Money is tight and his
wife does not work.She stays home and cares for their son.They
live in Asbury park.
1 woman who had no new clothes for her daughters in over 2 yrs.size 7/8
and 14/16.(we gave 1 weeks change of clothes and 3 pairs of pjs for both girls.)

We have lost 2 volunteers this past month
as they are now giving their time to other projects.
3 of our main donars have moved out of state and I am sure they will be
helping another charity.This will make a big differance for Christmas this year. Last year we were able to give all the children 5-7 gifts each for under the tree.We are
hoping that several people will find it in their hearts to pick up the slack for our needy families.

Note*We have been fortunate the past Christmas's to get new presents such as toys and games from generous people for the children.We pray this year will be as successful.We are already asking those who knit,crochet or sew to please consider making scarves for the children or baby blankets.We appreciate all those Santa helpers..
