A Beautiful Tree

It's not the prettiest or most grandly decorated, but the Giving Tree is the receptacle for perhaps the most love.

Roughly a hundred tags (e.g., "Johnny, 5", "Susie, 8") are hung on the tree at the beginning of the season, and members of the congregation and parents of the pre-schoolers (there's some overlap between the two groups) are asked to buy a present for a child who won't get much this Christmas.

Once again, all the tags were spoken for, and the unwrapped presents, along with their tags, were laid under the tree for StarVista to pick up the week before Christmas.

For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required.
--Luke 12:48
