Sharing Christmas Love With Our Friends and Neighbors
Christmas always brings out the best in our House of Raeford Farms FLOCK teams across the southeast. Giving to others always blesses us as much as the recipients.
Duplin County, North Carolina is the home of House of Raeford, and it is always exciting to sow into this community. We celebrated the kids and staff at Wallace Elementary school by turning their outdoor courtyard into a winter wonderland. Lights, trees, decorations, and even snowflakes have made this a nice escape from the classroom. In addition, our local FLOCK members blessed students at the school with Christmas gifts to add some extra joy to their lives, and hosted a Christmas party for all of those teachers and support staff who needed a break from the daily routine and allowed others to serve them.
Our Rose Hill operation made a visit to the Gardens of Rose Hill nursing home once again this year. Besides presenting gift baskets to all the residents, they also donated a television and stand for the facility.
