Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year; I love to celebrate the greatest story in all of histroy, which begins with the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Can you imagine the excitement the shepherds must have felt to witness the arrival of their long-awaited Savior? Little did they know that the greatest gift this world would ever receive was lying in a manger before them.

And at Orange County Rescue Mission, we have our traditional Christmas celebrations, too. Events like Magic at the Mission fill everyone with happiness! These are vivid reminders to us all of the great gifts we receive from Jesus Christ – transformed hearts and new lives.

We are so grateful for your support, which makes this all possible. May God bless you as you have blessed the Least, the Last, and the Lost this Christmas and throughout the year.
