Community Shares Christmas Love with Madison Heights Area Vets
(Guest View by Merri Busch, Dec. 19, 2015)
Madison Heights, MI – Today was the Veteran Luncheon sponsored by the Madison Heights Methodist Church! Tons of food, gifts for all the vets and food baskets to go. And, a guest speaker from the US Dept of Veteran Affairs who shared lots of information and literature.
There were 36 people,18 vets, all Vietnam Vets, including two women. Bob Evans Madison Heights hosted a fundraiser earlier to raise money for the veteran’s gifts. And Meijer in Madison Heights donated grocery gift cards.
McNaughton-McKay Madison Heights sponsored the catering. Grace and Chris, a musical duo led the Christmas Carols. And among the Vets was my personal favorite, my sister US Army Veteran Aprila Anselmo.
Nice job Pastor Rhonda!
