The Haircuts for the Holidays was held on Saturday, November 16th at First Pres Church, our annual start of the Lamb's Lunch season event. We had many volunteers providing hair washes, hair cuts, manicures, foot washes, medical care, and clothing.
There were 128 guests, many of them got haircuts, manicures, and foot washes. There were 83 clients for clothes give away, including 55 pairs of jeans, 60 pairs of warm wool socks, 40 pairs of long underwear tops & bottoms, 47 hats, 44 pairs of gloves, and a number of hygeine items (e.g., razors, shampoo, toothpaste and brushes, hand lotion, etc...)
The event wrapped up with a powerful message from a woman who had recently experienced a miscarrige, and a delicious sit-down meal provided by Casa de Dios Shalom. Thanks much to all who made this turn out so well!
