This season has truly proved merry and bright across all of the Rescue Mission campuses. The House of Hope is no exception to the Christmas cheer and I am so thrilled to see all of our mom’s and children being loved through faithful volunteers that bring Christmas to this home.

I am thankful for the dedication of Michelle Young and her service to the women and children of the House of Hope and sharing these moments with us.

Special thanks to Eva Lacy of A Little Known Shop for bringing face painting to our kids and contributing to the upstairs house art wall. Thank you to Mission Viejo Saddleback Valley Elks Lodge for decorating our tree and bringing gifts for our kids to open with a special appearance by Santa and Mrs Clause. Donahue Schriber has also brought dinner and gifts for years and we are extremely grateful for their involvement with our program.
