Christmas Day

Christmas Dinner was a delightful event. We served 89 guests with 45 volunteers helping out. It was like each guest having their own personal waiter/waitress and all enjoyed the serving and being served. Our meal was a classic; ham, macaroni and cheese, collard greens, salad, fresh pinapple slices and assorted table condiments. Our plates were full and by the end of the hour so were many bellies.

Our piano player Kathy from Temple Sinai did a great job playing Christmas Carols. The music truly added to the festive atmosphere. The volunteer's requests to help this year were unbelievable. We recommend you call early if you would like to serve next year. We start taking requests the first week of Dec.

Thanks to all who supported this day. Our benefactors, food suppliers and volunteers. It is amazing when it all comes together and we experience such gratitude.
