Emanuel's Heartwarming Blanket Project: Spreading Christmas Joy Beyond the Classroom

By -

A team of fantastic ladies in our congregation and Emanuel's student council members cut fabric, coordinated colors, and tied strips to craft 75 fleece tie blankets from 160 yards of fabric. As part of our unique Christmas tradition, Emanuel foregoes class gift exchanges. Instead, classrooms unite to spread the joy of Jesus in our community. The fruits of this year's labor—a total of 75 blankets, each accompanied by a devotion book and a card crafted by our younger students—will soon find their way to those at St. Joseph Residence. Keep an eye out for details on Christmas caroling, where we'll share these tokens of warmth with residents on our list in the coming weeks.
