VOLUNTEERING | Christmas compassion

Each year members and community volunteers at the First Church of the Brethen open their hearts a little wider and give of themselves on Christmas Day by preparing and delivering meals and holiday hellos to 200 fellow citizens who are alone and unable to leave their homes. Cooking starts at 8 a.m. with meals packaged at about 10 a.m. and delivery at 10:30 a.m. If you desire to help in any capacity, phone the church at 523-5212 or e-mail pastor@1stcob.net.
