Walpole Giving Tree Project in Search of Families in Need
The congregations of Walpole, NH 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 Wed. Nov. 24 at 7pm at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Walpole.
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 Church, 603-756-4533. The deadline for entry into the Giving Tree Project is November 13. Many families have to choose how they use their limited resources and it must go to heating their houses and putting food on the table before winter clothing, books or a toy for their child. Let us come together as communities of faith to support one another and this local village project. For further information call Rev. Telos Whitfield at 802-376-4977.
