This year The
Parish Book Store, inside Eastern Shore Chapel, Virginia Beach, will
join with the Mission of the Holy Spirit for a Christmas Gift Book
Project. The Episcopal Mission of the Holy Spirit serves the at-risk
community of Norfolk, particularly focusing on the children and youth.
Inside the Parish
Book Store is a Christmas tree with "decorations" providing the gender
and age of a child. Visitors to the store can take a decoration from the
tree and choose an age appropriate book from the various children's
books available in the store. The book, with the decoration attached,
will be placed in baskets around the tree. On December 4, the books will
be picked up to be taken to the Mission and distributed to the
children.
