Each year we enlist the help of area teachers in compiling
our Santa letters. Many thanks to each of them who have
worked to make this edition possible.
The letters are typed just as each child has written them and
every effort is made to include each and every one of them.
Enjoy the reading and have a very
merry and safe holiday

Oilton this past Monday
where an estimated crowd of
over 100 people tilled the
church.
