Happy Birthday and Getting ready for Christmas

On Sunday, December 19, Augustana wished Pastor and a visitor a happy Birthday.  Marilyn and Karen give Christmas gifts to Father Louis Braxton. These were Father's own personal gifts. Augustana members have organized Christmas gifts for his homeless residents which will be distributed just before Christmas. Besides wishing birthday and Christmas greetings,  Augustana members decorated the church for Christmas. After decorating the church, members went Christmas Caroling to Flushing House and visited Eric. Eric recently had surgery on his foot so he is home bound.
