Gift requests were assembled by a Gammon teacher who has gone the extra mile to help them. There are also some remaining gift tags from among the low-income Starkey adults with developmental disabilities who we are gifting this season. Gifts should be wrapped, placed in one clear plastic bag with the original tag, and returned to the Parlor no later than Sunday, December 2. So please bring your Christmas spirit to our Angel Tree table after church today!
