2013 Christmas Party

Special thanks to those who helped make the
Homes with Hope
2013 Christmas Party so much fun!

“Texas Night Before Christmas”

Christmas has come and gone, but it is never too late to thank those who helped us put together another great Homes with Hope family Christmas party! Each year our foster and adoptive families gather together and we get to enjoy how much the children have grown, laugh and sing with them, give them gifts and bless them with the love of Christ.

There are many people to thank, including those who rounded up the great gifts for our children!
