Our December giving tree was a huge success! Over 200 gifts were delivered to Opening Doors and Mustard Seed School. 18 boxes of diapers and wipes also went to Mary House—so many that they even had to bring out the forklift for us! Thank you to Robin & Jeff Thompson, Patty Fairbanks, and Denise Jones for being Westminster’s “elves” and getting everything delivered in time for Christmas!
