The Beacon office received a call this week from a kind-hearted Reader with a unique request. The Port Clinton woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, was talking with a Salvation Army Bell-ringer outside Community Market one day last week.
The community is invited get in the Christmas Spirit at St. Paul Lutheran Church on Dec. 16 at 6:30 p.m. Through the eyes and hearts of children there will be focus on the real meaning of Christmas. The play, ‘Merry Christmas! – an experience in Joy, Peace, Light & Love in Jesus!’ will be followed by a Birthday Party for Jesus. There will be ice cream and cake and an opportunity to give a present to Jesus by serving others.
Want to change lives here at home? Consider United Way in Ottawa County. Just $50.00 could make sure a preschool child has a volunteer reader each week; $100 can support training for a special advocate for an abused child; $150 could help a family on the road to financial stability. Any gift when United with others makes us all better.
