		OUR CHRISTMAS OUTREACH MINISTRY has been happening for over thirty years. This past Christmas we helped 85 families which included 181 children. Each family received a turkey or ham, potatoes, home baked cookies, etc. for their holiday meal and many extra groceries plus a special gift for each person. Posted in Fellowship Hall are several thank you notes and a letter from the Foothill Healthy Babies Agency, one of the agencies who provide us with names of the families needing a little extra help. - Kay

PRAYER SHAWL MINSTRY Before closing out 2011 the Prayer Shawl Ministry enjoyed a festive Christmas party and gift exchange. Back to our regular schedule, January finds us knitting away each Thursday at noon in the Joseph Room. Grab your knitting needles or crochet hook, even if they’ve been tucked away for awhile, and join us. We welcome you! Plans are taking shape for our spring getaway, March 23-25. If you’re interested in joining us for a fun and relaxing weekend at Camp Del Oro, just north of Nevada City, give Cathy (265-6926) or Marte (274-2596) a call.
