Our Christmas Season flew by and one of our first events was our Christmas Toy Store. We were running at a toy deficit as one of our main toy suppliers was not able to help this year. One week before delivery day, Paychex called and asked if there was anything they could do to help. What a miracle. In 8 days they were able to donate over 100 toys and they delivered them two days before the scheduled event. We were stunned at the speed and enthusiasm with which they carried out this last minute project. God does work in wonderful ways. Thank you to Paychex and to many individual and church donators who made this event successful. Each child received one main toy, a smaller gift, a hat and glove set, a stuffed animal and 2 books. Each family received one family game. We had 8 volunteers who helped the families pick out gifts for the children on delivery day. Special thanks to Nancy Goodman and Gina Maldonado for their dedication to organizing all the toys and making sure the store ran smoothly. We served over 106 children and the parents were delighted. Many stated that our efforts would surely make their children’s Christmas memorable. A great big THANKS to all.
