Old business: gifts for our two Christmas families were brought unwrapped to the meeting. if you signed up to help one of these families, please bring your gift(s) Wednesday or Sunday to Christy Burnette.
New Business: a family connected with our church, mom is out of work with two high school sons & a middle school age child, can only get Christmas help for the youngest child. Christy suggested that we take up a collection to help them out. A basket was passed and we decided to get a $50 Visa card to help the family with groceries.
The Dustin Witherspoon family lost their house to a fire, 23 yr old Dustin was killed in the fire. His wife & baby boy were injured, and lost all their belongings. Stephanie will send a e-mail with needs, including sizes, etc. We know the baby wears size 2 diapers & 3-6 month clothes. We will accept donations to help this family, as well. We will also donate a $50 gift card from WOC funds.
