Look at What God Has Done

The annual Christmas Toy and Food Give-away was held at the Christian Shelter on December 17, 2011. Over the past several years this event has been organized by the Sunrise Rotary Club and run by its membership.  Additionally food was donated by Perdue Farms, Maryland Food Bank, and the Sunrise club.  It was encouraging  to see club members  arriving early and organizing toys and bags of food to be given away.  Doors would open at 11:00 AM but adults and children began forming a line outside the Shelter at 9:00 AM.  Food bags were given to 116 parents and 205 children received toys.  It was wonderful seeing the happy expressions on faces and humbling to hear the words “thanks for everything” as people  left to return to their homes.
