The Church School is collecting Christmas gifts to deliver to underprivileged children. Participants are encouraged to donate a new, unwrapped Christmas toy for a 3rd Grader, (something appropriate for a 7 or 8 year old child.
The donated gifts will be given to FOCUS North America (The Fellowship of Orthodox Christians United to Serve) who are coordinating the donations. FOCUS is presently in the process of formally developing and setting up a targeted Community support program for Bridgeport.
As mentioned earlier, the 3rd Grade students at Beardsley Elementary School in Bridgeport is the targeted gift group for these Christmas gifts. There are 29 boys and 18 girls in the 3rd grade classes at Beardsley Elementary, with an age of 7 or 8 years old. Holy Ghost Church (Bridgeport), St. John's Church (Mill Hill, Bridgeport) along with us, St. George, are donating to this school and age group. St. John's will also be supporting a HeadStart program in Bridgeport with gifts for infants, toddlers, and 3-5 year old children.
