Friends Over Fences 3rd Annual Christmas Party

Dear Friends,

You are invited to this year’s Christmas Party and Dinner. CHRISTMAS DAY at
1 PM at Grantham Brethren in Christ Church.

Grantham Church has graciously offered to host the event and supply the
food and help.

*Who is invited?*
– Ex-offenders (or others) who have nowhere to go on Christmas, and their
families
– Friends Over Fences supporters
– Anyone interested in being a friend to those unable to celebrate with
their families this year.

*How can you help?*

*Attend! *If you are able to join us, please RSVP to me by replying to this
email.

Bring someone! Many of our returning citizens will have nowhere to go on
Christmas day and no transportation to the church. Invite them, bring them
and be blessed.

*Serve!* We are looking for volunteers to help set-up and serve the meal.
If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Dan Bisbee at
dbisbee@granthamchurch.org

*Bake!* We are aiming to have a bountiful dessert buffet as part of the
meal. Homemade desserts can be brought to the church on Christmas Eve or
Christmas Day to be served at the meal.

*Give! *We would like to give gifts to all ex-offenders and their families.
Individually wrapped gifts can be placed on the table in the family/library
entrance. Please label each gift for man, woman, or child noting the
appropriate age for the children’s gifts.

Thank you,
