For more than 10 years, Nativity’s Day of Giving has hosted Peggy’s Angel Tree, led by Peggy Wade, supporting individuals and families in need in the surrounding community.
Peggy has been and continues to be an Angel to so many at Nativity and in the broader community. We are grateful for all she has done in her many years of service here.
Though Peggy is not able to lead this effort going forward, the tradition will continue with Nativity this year supporting immigrant families from El Buen Pastor, the Spanish speaking Episcopal community in Durham.
Father Grey and Beth Crow have been working with the Rev. Susan Keedy, Vicar of El Buen Pastor.
As you can imagine, the stress and fear the congregation has been under due to unpredictable immigration enforcement has had mental, spiritual and financial impacts on the congregation.
The contributions you offer will provide extra support during the holidays and would be greatly appreciated.
Beginning November 15 through December 6, members of Nativity’s Outreach Team will be present in the Narthex with this year’s Angel Tree.
Each angel will represent one $50 Visa gift card, which should be brought to the church on December 6, our Day of Giving.
