Christmas is just around the corner and we still have a need for Christmas Toys this year. We need a total of 3,000 unwrapped gifts mostly for ages 8-12 for both boys and girls. Wrapping paper and tape is needed too!
Thank you to all our friends and supporters who filled up all our Christmas opportunities to serve at the Rescue Mission in various aspects to the homeless, hurting and those in-need.
