Lake Region Last December the City Temple (Detroit) Church Adventist Youth (AY) department began collecting new toys and clothing to give to children living in homeless shelters in the Metro Detroit area for Christmas. Generous donations came in from church members, Peterson-Warren Academy students, and community members.
The AY members boxed and wrapped the gifts so that the children would have the added joy of ripping off the Christmas wrappings on Christmas morning. Over 200 gifts were distributed to three homeless shelters from their Adventist friends.
