Finding Faith

If you’re taking a stroll, Christmas shopping, or just running a few errands, you may come across a red kettle.

This is all part of the Salvation Army’s fundraising efforts during the holiday season.

These kettles are scattered all over the state, and they’re equipped with TipTap devices to make it convenient for those who may not have cash on hand to contribute.

Appendix cancer is rare. According to the National Cancer Institute, only one to two people out of every million are diagnosed every year.That’s what made it so shocking to Tonya Adams when her daughter was diagnosed.

Te’Andra was just 28 years old when she was diagnosed. Just seven months later Te’Andra passed from her illness.

Now, her mom, Tonya, works to raise awareness about the disease. She also carries on the memory of her daughter.

Part of the way she does that is through the annual Christmas Gala.

This year’s gala will take place on December 17 from 6-9:30p.

The holidays are often celebrated as a joyful time of the year, filled with festive activities and a sense of holiday merriment.

However, it’s important to recognize that for many individuals, this season can also be marked by grief and sorrow.

To provide support to those who may be grappling with the loss of a loved one during the holiday season, Pilgram Missionary Baptist Church is organizing an event called “Healing for the Holidays.”

Participants in this gathering will have the opportunity to engage in a panel discussion, take part in a candlelight ceremony, and participate in a worship service.
