PROJECT HELPS TO FEED THE HUNGRY
NEW DESIGN FOR 2002 - THE LITTLE CHILD OF PEACE
The Archdiocese of Philadelphia Office of Nutritional Development Services has a new design for its annual Christmas card project. The Little Child of Peace pictures the Child Jesus surrounded by animals. Inside the card reads "with a little child to guide them..." Isaiah 11:6
This is the 21st anniversary of the Alternative Christmas Card Project. All proceeds from the sale of the cards are used to purchase food to stock area soup kitchens and food cupboards. The annual project provides an alternative to people who wish to avoid the commercialism of the Christmas season and prefer to focus on the true meaning of the holy day.
Cards are available in the new design, The Little Child of Peace, or in one of the designs from past years: The Gift of Peace, The Christmas Tree,, The Christmas Lamb, Angel of Bounty and The Littlest Angel. All cards are 5"x7" and are printed on high quality paper stock. Cards are sold in packs of ten cards for $15.00 or packs of 20 cards for $25.00. Each card explains that the greeting represents a donation made to help feed the hungry.
