I can hardly believe it is No-

vember already! Where has

the year gone? You can defi-

nitely feel the nip that’s been

in the air lately—it’s heralding

the coming of winter.

Before we get too deep into

winter though, we get to cele-

brate a great family holiday

this month...Thanksgiving.

Some people may pause and

reflect on missing family mem-

bers. If you are one of these

people, I urge you to give

thanks for the time

you had with them

and then step out of

your comfort zone

and make some

new family!

I’ve been so

blessed since ar-

riving in Newark

just over two years ago. My

family has increased tremen-

dously! I thank God for each

and everyone of you who have

become part of my family.

There’s always room for more!

I will praise the name of God with

song, And shall magnify Him with

thanksgiving. Psalm 69:30

Red Kettle Campaign 2017

Why do we need YOUR help?

The Salvation Army needs

the support and help of

the Licking County com-

munity to make its Christ-

mas Cheer Program a suc-

cess. In 2016, The Salva-

tion Army provided nearly

850 families with food

and gifts for the holiday

season. We depend on

the donations of food,

clothing, toys and time

from the generous Lick-

ing County citizens to

make our program suc-

cessful.

With the community’s

help we can really make

an impact. There are so

many things to be done;

will you please help us

spread Christmas Cheer

Miss Kettle has her own Facebook® page Our beloved and iconic Miss

Kettle has become such a

staple at Holiday events that

we have started a Facebook®

page so you too can keep up,

and perhaps get a picture or

two with her….sorry, no auto-

graphs please, LOL.

If you see her out and about

during this Christmas Season,

make sure to send some love

to her drivers and volunteer

companions. Miss Kettle is

wishing you all a very

Merry Christmas!

You can find her at:

https://www.facebook.com/

MissKettleNewarkOhio/

We are sure that if you are

a Licking County resident,

you have had a glimpse of

our very own giant Red

Kettle a.k.a Miss Kettle.

She has become so popu-

lar over the years, that we

have actually had to start

using a social calendar for

her to keep up with her

guest appearances.

With 'heart to God and hand to man', The Salvation Army

strives to meet the basic needs of all who come seeking help.

Taking immediate care of the basic human needs of food,

shelter, clothing, and safety is an important first step in the

development of a more positive and permanent life change in

the people we help. It is essential to note that at no time will the

participation in spiritual activities be required as a condition for

receiving needed services. All service is given in the name of

Jesus for meeting human needs and caring for hurting persons

is in and of itself valued and is a spiritual ministry.
