Crafts of Christmas
At this annual “make it and take it” craft event hosted by the Youth & Family Ministry, families created holiday gifts and decorations, made crafts, and decorated cookies. Santa even paid a visit ... perhaps getting the most joyous and huggable reception from the 6th-8th grade Uniteens and 9th-12th grade YOU teens, who were enjoying their own Christmas celebrations.

Thank You to All of Our Christmas ‘Angels’
Volunteer Extraordinaire Pam Petersen and her team once again led a tremendously
successful Christmas Angel outreach program, thanks to the overwhelming generosity of
our congregants.
We adopted 300 4th and 5th grade students at Palomino Intermediate, and provided “gift
baskets” filled with school supplies to 12 teachers. In addition, we delivered food certificates
totaling $12,120 to help feed Palomino and Echo Mountain families over the winter break. We
also delivered 300 coupons for free cartons of eggs courtesy of Hickman’s Egg Ranch.
In addition, we delivered two huge truckloads of used jackets, sweaters, sweatshirts and
blankets collected during our “Warmth Drive” to the Palomino Thrift Store.
Thank you all for your warmth and generosity, and bless you all!!!
