These hundreds of presents, which had been individually sorted and wrapped with loving care in the Workshop, were assigned to patients and Kairos members and placed under the Christmas tree. After enjoying a large breakfast that had been prepared by our kitchen staff and volunteers, presents were distributed to the men and women. The joy, surprise, gratitude and even a few tears displayed by the patients and men of the Kairos program is truly indescribable. None of this would be possible were it not for the tremendous support from friends of Christ House. All the items for the Christ House Christmas celebration were donated from area churches, individuals, businesses and foundations.
Groups provide and served meals many different meals.
Churches donate presents of new sweaters, sweat suits, hats, gloves and other winter clothing. Many individuals bought buy specific gifts that the Kairos members have requested, such as kitchen utensils, bedding, or other items for their apartments. The outpouring of support is simply overwhelming. A few of the donors are listed elsewhere on this page, however many, many more people deserve heartfelt thanks. So, to all of you, thank you for your kindness and generosity during the holiday season.
