This Christmas, Social Ministry and ECHO are teaming up to provide gift cards to our friends at Warrenton Manor. How do you do this? Simple!
- Sign-up by selecting one or more pre-labeled Christmas cards after services in the coming weeks
- Write a personalized note to your senior(s)
- Return the card and envelope (unsealed) and $20 designated to Senior Angels in your offering
If you can, please join us at the 2:00 p.m. Christmas get-together Sunday, December 22 at Warrenton Manor (663 Hastings Lane) so that you can meet and greet your senior(s) — and Santa!
What is our history with Warrenton Manor? Warrenton Manor provides Section 8 subsidized housing through 68 apartments in Warrenton. Food Distribution has been delivering food to Warrenton Manor residents almost from its inception. Social Ministry has provided Senior Angels to a number of Warrenton Manor residents over the years. ECHO (OSLC’s Experienced Christians Helping Others/Ourselves) has been providing monthly meals and programming to Warrenton Manor since 2015.
Why would you want to consider becoming an Angel to a Senior? It is part of our call in Matthew 25 to help the least of these. It will enrich your life as well! People who have participated with our Warrenton Manor friends tell of the joy of getting to know the residents. Sponsoring can give you a chance to join in spreading Christmas Spirit by meeting and talking with your Senior. It will give you an opportunity to be present in someone’s life who will be truly grateful for your time.
Look for Senior Angel announcements at our services and mark your calendar for 12/22.
