Each year, the Lady-Links have a Christmas Party with the purpose of spreading joy by making ornaments to share. That joy is evident at the party as we get together as a large group, but joy will also be evident in the next few days as we distribute those ornaments to our dear friends, those ladies in our community in various stages of cognitive decline that we visit on a regular basis. In addition, we will distribute ornaments throughout our continuing care residence to our neighbors there.
Our host for the party is the husband of our very first dear friend.
Sharing memories of her and how the Lady-Links got started in 2013 is a tradition at our Christmas party. Three of the Lady-Links on her original team gathered with her husband for a special picture.
Our Craft Coordinator has all the ornaments ready for us to assemble. Before the party is over, we will make 110 ornaments that will bring joy to those who receive them.
Our party wouldn’t be complete without a Christmas cake and punch.
There was joy everywhere as we worked together in the spirit of love and giving.
Our finished ornaments filled the table.
Our resident life team brought much appreciated words of encouragement to our group.
We ended our party with a pinning ceremony recognizing some of our newest Lady-Links. It was a time of joy and rejoicing with love and laughter throughout the event.
Merry Christmas from the Lady-Links.
