Thankful for Gifts and the Ability to Give

We are so blessed to be in this place where we can learn about the love and grace of Jesus everyday! I am especially thankful to be here when this time of year rolls around and we can focus our thanks on the gifts God has given us while we look ahead to his greatest gift - Jesus.
We are honored here at Forest Hills to once again be partnering with Hillsboro Family Resource Center to provide Christmas wishes for families in our area who are struggling financially. The best part though - we get to share Jesus's love with them at the same time!
As in the past, the middle school is sponsoring two families this year. Below is the list with the families' needs as well as some wishes for their kids. (Wrapping supplies are also included.) Please peruse the list and see what you might be able to provide this year.
I wanted to get the list out before this weekend's shopping extravaganza takes place. There is no pressure to choose and buy this early. However, I know a few of you are extreme Black Friday shoppers and might find some of this stuff this weekend for a great deal!
When you choose what you'd like to give these families this year, you can comment on this post or email Mrs. Schulze directly.
Thank you for the inspiration you are to our team every year as you selflessly give of your time and resources to help those in need in our community.
