The pouring rain could not keep over 225 people from coming together on Christmas Day 2025. They came to remember all the love, joy, and hope that Christmas gives us. It was a time of celebration, good food, great music, meeting new friends and connecting with friends from the past. This was our twelfth year where guests, volunteers, and us all leave with much more than any of us came with.
