Each year, the wonderful members of LaCroix Church take their time during the holiday season to spread joy and the love of Christ to the 185 men in residence at Adult and Teen Challenge. With the help of local businesses, who help provide food and gifts, the men are fed and presented gifts and a visit from Santa. For many this is their only Christmas, and their first Christmas sober. I wish to thank the following business for their unselfish generosity each and every year! May God richly bless you for your giving hearts.
