Hope Church Christmas Party 2014
Our 2014 Christmas party was another wonderful success! We just love Christmas time! We love the way the kids’ eyes light up with wonder, expectation, and gratitude. We love the way the adults all pitch in and help each other and care for the community. We love that “full” feeling as everyone who calls Hope Church “home” comes together at the same time, and invites friends from the community. We love the way all of you jump in and work together to help us pull together all the resources needed to give fun and practical gifts to our Hope Church family.
This year, we planned for 300 meals and gifts for children, and 75 meals and gifts for adults. Our actual attendance was a little lower than that, but still filled to the brim and very exciting. We served about 250 kids and about 125 adults. This gave us an opportunity to allow some of our members to play “Father Christmas” in the community and deliver food and gifts to neighbors and community members that they knew had specific needs. What a great way for Hope Church to make an impact on families that may never have thought about attending church before. We love the way God provides and opens doors.
