Check out this mini-documentary of the Christmas Basket preparation at St Peters. Thanks to Catholic Charities of Lake County's Rural Food Project and fearless leader Hedy Montoya along with her troop of tireless volunteers, over 200 boxes of food and gifts were handed out to needy families of Lake County fora hearty Christmas dinner. There was no time to ask any questions of anyone since they were all so busy but this should give you an idea of how much work it takes each year.
