Emmanuel Christmas Sack Assembly Day – 2017 - we had another amazing amount of items donated for our annual tradition of providing “Christmas sacks” to residents of our community on Christmas day.  Donations came in from individuals, church groups, schools and businesses. The amazing volunteers from Glory Lutheran came together on December 16th to once again do their magic and assemble the sacks.  Click here to watch a short video of our 2017 Christmas Sack assembly day.  Thank you to all our volunteers and donors!
