Articles From Our December, 2005 Newsletter
It's time once again for our annual holiday pot luck at PFLAG/KC. It’s a festive time so bring some festive food, enough for yourselves and maybe for an extra person who maybe forgot it was potluck time.
PFLAG will provide a deli tray and rolls....you bring the rest.
The festivities will begin at 3:00 PM at the regular place, Room 307 at Village Presbyterian Church, 6641 Mission Rd. Come join us and bring your loved ones along. It’ll be a typical PFLAG great time of celebration and fellowship.
Happy Holidays PFLAGers !!!
This month I have a proposal for you. Many of you feel extra charitable during this time of year. In the past you may have adopted a family in need or plucked an angel from the department store tree to buy gifts for an underprivelidged child…..This year, on behalf of Passages, I am making a plea for some of those charitable, TAX DEDUCTIBLE, dollars.
Many of us have attended events at the Passages Youth Center and have become aware of the needs of the center and of some of its members. For your shopping convenience, we have included a list of the most needed items. If you decide to donate something from the list, feel free to bring it to the PFLAG holiday gathering and we’ll see that it gets to the center.
Hate to shop? Monetary donations are always welcome and can be sent to:
Passages
4007 Central
Kansas City, MO. 64111
The needs are great and the dollars are few…
And some of you say “we don’t know what to do.”
So open your hearts and your wallets too…
Your gifts all received with a great big “Thank You”
Thanks, everybody, for a great year--see you at the party—Jamie Lee
PS-Passages will be happy to give you a receipt!!
