The 2010 Angel Tree Christmas celebration at St. Michael’s Anglican Parish in Enola, Pa. was held on December 11, 2010. We gathered in the St. Michael’s Parish community hall with several Angel Tree children who each received a gift from a member of the St. Michael’s Parish.
St. Nick, played by parish member Mark Daniels, made an appearance as well and all the children got to sit on his lap and tell him their Christmas wishes. St. Nick had candy canes and coloring books to pass out to the children as well.
A nice meal was planned and everyone had fun. We hope you enjoy the following photo montage of the 2010 Angel Tree Christmas Party at St. Michael’s Anglican Parish, a church serving the greater Harrisburg-Carlisle area. Click on a photo to see the larger image.
