Breakfast with Santa, December 1

Please join us at Hollydale United Methodist Church on Saturday, December 1st 9:00 am–12:00 pm. We will have pancakes, visit and pictures with Santa, special activities for the children and a Kid’s Secret Santa Shop where the children will be able to “shop” (no money needed) for small gifts for family, and have them wrapped and ready to give at Christmas! Afterward, everyone is invited to go caroling in the community starting around 1pm! Tell your family, neighbors and friends!
