We have a great spot located next to Sears lower floor.
We always have some great talks with people who are getting their presents wrapped. It's a way of serving and sharing our story with the community.
always need wrappers...sign up in lobby of Beavercreek or Dayton Campus or show up at the mall.
It will take hundreds of presents and hundreds of people to make the event run smoothly. Last year after one sleepless night. I mentioned Doug..."I'm concerned about the presents, lack of"...He said "let's see what the Lord can do"...a few hours later a family called and wanted to donate $2500 toward the gifts...the great thing... she went shopping and purchased the gifts. That's why Doug is the Senior leader...gift of faith.
Making Christmas Dreams Come True 2007
Many of the less-served of our community will not have the opportunity to eat a Christmas dinner, open presents, or celebrate the season. Over the last decade, we have helped make Christmas Dreams come true for thousands of people in the Dayton area. Last year over 1,400 people were cared for during the Christmas season.
