Children of Incarcerated Parents Receive Books

With the help of Marygrove Library, more than 50 new books were purchased and will be presented to children of incarcerated parents during the Angel Tree ceremony on December 11, 2008, in Alumni Hall.

The Angel Tree Prison Fellowship Christmas Celebration gives us the opportunity to reach some of the hundreds of thousands of children who won't be spending Christmas with their parents.

The 46 children who arrive on campus December 11 will be presented with gifts, entertainment, refreshments, and a brief tour of campus. Thank you, Marygrove, for your help in brightening Christmas for these children!
