Last year we shared a picture of our Christmas tree at the women’s house with no presents underneath it.
It was not meant to be sad. It was meant to be honest.
Many of the women who come through our doors arrive with very little. Some are rebuilding relationships. Some are starting over for the very first time. For many, Christmas has been a difficult season in the past.
So we shared that picture and simply let our community know that if anyone felt called to help, it would mean the world to these women to have a few gifts under the tree and to feel remembered and celebrated.
And you showed up.
Because of you, that empty space beneath the tree was filled. More importantly, the women felt seen, valued, and deeply loved. There were smiles, tears, laughter, and a sense of hope that stayed long after Christmas morning.
We also want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Grace Lutheran Church and their Giving Tree for helping supply some of the gifts that will go under this tree, and to the Trimont Lutheran Women for their generous donation. Your kindness and thoughtfulness are a true blessing to the women we serve.
As we approach this season again, we are reminded how powerful community truly is. Thank you for wrapping your arms around these women and helping make Christmas something beautiful and healing.
We are forever grateful.
If you feel called to want to help, you can reach us at 507 236 3103 or 507 848 6307

Merry Christmas and God bless you all!
