This year, a record high of about 200 people attended Operation Sharing on Christmas Day.

The day was filled with gifts, music, games and great food.

“You know, I used to dread the Christmas season and especially Christmas Day. But now I don’t,” one individual said during the event. This sentiment was echoed throughout the day by numerous others.

Thanks go to the families from Holy Trinity Church who came to share their music along with a special thanks to Dee-Lights Bakery, Church of the Good Shepherd for their shoebox gifts and the patrons who helped out in the Support for Operation Sharing
