I hate to admit it but I am just about ready for Thanksgiving! This year has zipped by and I can hear Ricker already - yes I am getting old! During this holiday season I hope you have a chance to celebrate with family and friends and to take a few moments to reflect on this rapidly ending year.
Here at The Partnership we have so much to be thankful for and the generosity of our community continues to amaze me! We had a wonderful gift of treats and goodies from one of Santa's helpers who just wanted to thank us for being here. We have generous donations at the Resale Shop, cookies from the Jr. Club and other generous bakers, who created beautiful gifts for foster families and Young Parents, gifts of toys, stockings, and money! We are indeed blessed and very grateful!
Young Parents Holiday Party
 I think Mrs. Claus knows what it means to care for twins! |
Last night the Young Parent participants celebrated in great style! Green Tree Christian Church hosted the party and made the most delicious holiday dinner for participants, mentors, and guests. Pictures are much better at telling the story than I am so I am going to include several from the party last night.
Of course, Santa and Mrs. Claus were a wonderful addition - and we are grateful for their participation! Thanks Mr. and Mrs. Claus!
Merry Christmas Everyone!

As much as Martha is trying, I am still not very good at the Facebook game but if you are I hope you will "follow us on Facebook" to keep up-to-date on our latest happenings! Like this morning - she already has the incredible gift from our friends the Boones and Priesmeyers - they brought handmade bookcases filled with books. These generous gifts will make a very special Christmas for a family in our Young Parents program and Capable Kids and Families.
Leadership Phelps County participants also visited and gifted us last week. They took the generous gift of area quilters (beautiful stockings) and are filling them with goodies for the moms in our Capable Kids and Families program!
And, please check out our website - Martha created a beautiful little video and you might find yourself in it! Our website is www.thecommunitypartneship.org
I hope you recognize the beautiful community we are creating with care, love, and compassion. Thank YOU for being a part of us.
