Dear Intermountain Church Friends and Mission Partners,

Happy & Merry
|
| Happy Hanukkah!
What a blessing it is to have Janet Tatz, our very faithful and knowledgeable Jewish Educator at Intermountain. Whenever there is a Jewish child on campus that needs instruction and mentoring in their faith, Janet goes above and beyond to make sure that the spiritual and cultural needs of that child are met.
Janet and Chaplain Chris work together on joint activities, like the observance of Hanukkah in chapel for all the children. On December 16th, the children learned about the holiday, enjoyed some traditional Hanukkah desserts, sang songs and played dreidel!
Also known as The Festival of Lights, Chanukah is a joyous time to celebrate with family and friends. To learn more, visit Chaplain Chris's blog post on the Intermountain Ministry website.
We wish you a very Merry Christmas!
What a joyous time of year it is on campus! We are blessed by the generosity of so many people, there is no way to list them all, but... the congregation of Our Redeemer's Lutheran Church in Helena hosted wonderful Holiday Party for our children in residential care, their families, and many siblings. Caring people from across the community provided an opportunity for our families to celebrate together.
We are also grateful to the many individuals, churches and church groups who provided Christmas gifts for the children living in Providence Home and on the Helena campus. Your gifts will help bring Christmas morning smiles and we are deeply appreciative.
Blessings for a wonderful Christmas season!
