How do you thank a community that cares for the least of these? A community that gives of their resources during the holiday season?
Every year, members of La Croix Church, along with several businesses, donate their time, talents and gifts to put on a Christmas program for the men of Adult & Teen Challenge Mid-America. They provide a meal, gifts, games and fellowship to create a sense of normal for the men in treatment for addiction.
