Shepherd's Child Party
These pictures tell the story. For five years children from the Myrtle Beach community have known what it means to experience the joy of Christmas through the generosity of folks at First UMC. Organized by Ron and Jackie, this party is one of several efforts of First UMC to reach out to children who need to know the love of God. Church members buy gifts and youth provide filled stockings to children selected by the Myrtle Beach school teachers and counselors. Yesterday, fifty children were treated to hamburgers, fries and lots of fun at Johnny Rockets at Broadway at the Beach. Then they arrived at First UMC to hear the real Christmas story as told by Big Tom and to meet Santa Claus who gave them their gifts. May each child remember that those who know Jesus Christ shared Christmas with them.
