The Standing Rock Reservation Holiday Project

Dear Friends,

I don't know if you are as surprised as I am that the 'holidays' are

already here - but THEY HAVE ARRIVED! And so has our 8th annual

Holiday Project for the children and elders of The Standing Rock

Reservation.

We will be accepting donations of gifts and clothing thru December 14th.

They may be dropped off at the front door of Angel Hill House 24/7

(no need to knock). We have donation boxes on the covered front

porch. Please be sure to leave your name along with your donation.

If you wrap your gift, please label it with age/size/gender.

For the holiday project the only n'used clothing that will be accepted are

coats and jackets. (if you have other n'used clothing you would like

to donate, please get the shipping address from Sherry, and you can

ship your donations directly to the church in ND).

As you know from earlier emails, the cost of shipping has dramatically

increased with the rising cost of fuel, so we are seeking to reduce our

shipping weights as much as possible without skimping on our giving.

With that in mind - many stores are offering the 'black Friday' sales ONLINE -

WITH FREE SHIPPING!!!!

This is a great way to stretch our dollars by shopping the super sales after

Thanksgiving, and using the FREE SHIPPING to send the gifts DIRECTLY

to North Dakota!!!

Church of Tipi Wakan

(Please reference The Peace Chapel, & Rev. Sherry / Mary Thunder

As always - WALMART gift cards are very very welcome.

Pastor Boots will drive (100+ miles roundtrip) to Walmart

and do additional shopping for needed items and food.

I humbly have a special request this year: Please consider

adding a financial donation along with your gifts to help

defray the shipping costs of the gifts and clothing that we

will be shipping from Angel Hill House in Leesburg.

If you have any sources that could possibly help us with the

shipping - PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!

Blessings,
Sherry
