34th Annual
Free Christmas Dinner to be held Christmas Day
Christmas is the time of year for joy and happiness, but for those who
are lonely or less fortunate it can be a very sad time of year.
This is the reason that for the past 33 years the Lighthouse Christian
Center along with area business and community volunteers treat those
persons to a free Christmas Dinner.
The dinner is free, it consists of ham, chicken, bar b que pork,
dressing, green beans, corn, escalloped potatoes, cole slaw, bread,
butter, milk, coffee and finished with Wicks pies for dessert.
In addition to the meal, we have a treat, of candy, fruit, and
gum..especially for the children..we also have numerous door prizes for
the adults and gifts for the children,,The past few years, we have had
bicycles as door prizes for the children.
Even in the bad economy, the business and the more fortunate have been
very generous this year, and we expect to have lots of food, and gifts.
We expect to have lots more door prizes this year to make Christmas
more enjoyable for more people.
Reservations for the dinner are requested, (just so we will know how
much food to prepare) but you can come with out them. Leave a
message with the age of your children so we can have the
appropriate age gift.
If you know of a shut-in that needs a meal, please call 937-548-7464
and put their name on the list, please leave a message if no one
answers, someone will get back to you.
The meal starts at 11:30 on Christmas Day.
