The Director of Children's Ministries at the Valparaiso First United Methodist Church, Karyn Custer-Jankowski, presents a $400 check to Lindsay Shira of The Caring Place. Money was raised at the "Breakfast with St. Nicholas" event that took place in the terrible winter weather on December 14th.
We had a packed house of over 120 people who braved the snow and cold!
Lindsay is holding hats and gloves that were donated to our "Mitten Tree" by our church members, some of whom knitted and crocheted them!
