Holiday Cheer for All

Christmas cheer flowed throughout the building at the United Church of Rogers Park on December 22. 40 families gathered together for the 2009 Holiday Cheer program. Mark Bowman and his family cooked a delicious vegetarian meal, and church members mingled and served the food. After dinner, everyone came together to sing Christmas carols and make Christmas cards. At the end of the night, 86 children received gifts that were generously donated from the angel tree at United Church of Rogers Park and Trinity United Methodist in Willmette. Each family also received a gift card for groceries thanks to donations from The Glenwood, Davis-Miller Design in Winnetka, and generous church members.
