Dear ones,

I have been brought close to tears so many times today
thanks to the outpouring in response to this morning's
appeal.  At least twenty people have brought food
and/or money and many others who couldn't come by have
asked if they can still do something.

If you wanted to help but couldn't make it to the
church today, please channel that generosity and bring
your contribution to the South Palo Alto Food Closet
basket in the lobby the next time you are here, or
write a check to the Urban Ministry for the Christmas
Eve offering.  Our family in need is now looking at a
very merry Christmas, and there are others in the
community who will be just as transformed by your
giving.

"Good King Wenceslas," one of my favorite carols,
promises that by blessing others with gifts, we will
find blessing.  By that measure we will have a very
blessed Christmas here at UUCPA.

Peace,
Amy
