Not only does the SHJ provide food at Christmas but the Angel Tree provides presents for the children of 51 families selected through the school counselors at Fountain Lake, Jessieville and Mountain Pine. LOSH member Sharon Osterhout coordinates all Angel Tree activities so that 140 children will have something under the Christmas Tree. Sharon and Deb Grigone also helped distribute the food items into the family boxes so that parish volunteers could take the food and presents out to the community.
