Cathedral Shelter Christmas Baskets – Results for 2009

Thanks to all of you who sponsored, shopped, wrapped, packed, loaded, donated money for a family, or prayed for the success of this year’s Cathedral Shelter Christmas Basket program at St. Mark’s. We had more participants (fifty-five St. Mark’s families and individuals, plus the Daughters of the King) than families to sponsor and were able to serve sixty-eight families (including seniors and homeless) representing 130 people. This is the same number of families as last year, but the average family size we drew was much smaller than in past years.

In addition, some of those who missed out on sponsoring a Cathedral Shelter family learned of a local family of 7 in need, so three St. Mark’s families provided a Christmas Basket for them.

Boxes started arriving at church during the week prior to our pick up date of Saturday, December 12th. When the truck arrived, twenty St. Mark’s volunteers led by Dan Conaway’s great organizational skills moved 114 boxes from the library onto the truck. All ages were represented by the morning’s volunteers.

Thank you again for whatever form your participation took. You have certainly made Christmas brighter and more comfortable for scores of people in need.
