Luke 12:48 (NIV) says, “From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.”
Christmas Happiness offers a wonderful opportunity for people who have been blessed to bless others in need.
U.M. Wagner did just that Friday, contributing $25 to the fund with these words, “In honor of my many blessings.”
Please bring Christmas Happiness contributions to the Salisbury Post, 131 W. Innes St., between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. weekdays or mail them to the Salisbury Post Christmas Happiness Fund, P.O. Box 4639, Salisbury, N.C. 28145-4639. Make checks payable to the Christmas Happiness Fund and indicate how you wish your donation listed.
