Christmas Sharing
December 6 - 11, 2010

Christmas Sharing is a community-wide event in which various area churches, Wheaton/Warrenville School District 200, and the township offices all collaborate each December to share the Christmas spirit with local needy families.  Piles of clothing, household goods, shoes, and toys are assembled at each church to distribute to the families who have been invited to participate.   Each family also receives a large box of food, and each child also receives a new toy.

Many volunteers of all ages worked to transform our Ministry Center into a huge display area, setting up tables and clothing racks; sorting clothes and toys; filling food boxes; assisting guests; providing cookies, snacks and drinks; cleaning up; running errands; carrying food boxes and clothing bags; and transporting guests.

No regular LOGOS session was held on Wednesday, December 8, 2010; but many of our LOGOS middle schoolers spent that afternoon and evening helping with Christmas sharing.

Our thanks to Bob Stevens, Phyllis Josephson, and Mary Kinsey for the photos!
