Christmas Party/Pop-up Shop - Willston holds an event for children and their families in the community for every major holiday. In previous years, the Women’s Ministry has helped to support the Willston Community Center at Christmas by collecting small gifts/items that can be used for a pop-up shop that kids can then “Shop” for free to select presents for their family members. In addition, this event often includes the opportunity for kids to craft gingerbread houses. Volunteers are needed to set up and man the shop (to help kids make selections), to help kids wrap presents and assist kids with making the gingerbread houses.
