Walpole Giving Tree Project in Search of Families in Need
The church congregations of Walpole have a Community Christmas Fund, and every holiday season the area clergy join with the Ecumenical Youth Group to offer the Giving Tree Project to families in need. This project offers holiday gifts to families in Walpole and North Walpole. An offering is taken at the Community Thanksgiving Service to support this fund. This year’s service will be on Wednesday, Nov. 20 at 7pm at the Walpole Unitarian Church. If you know of a family that could benefit from being part of the Giving Tree Project, please contact Rev. Susan Kershaw at St. John’s Episcopal, 603-756-4533, Rev. Larry Seibrands of the Walpole Congregational Church, 603-756-4075, or Rev. Telos Whitfield of the Walpole Unitarian Church at 802-376-4977. The deadline for entry into the Giving Tree Project is November 15. Let us come together as communities of faith to support one another.
