Christmas Open House + Benefit Christmas Jazz Concert featuring Prelude!





We know it is a busy month, but we encourage you to take some time to stop and enjoy the season in some very special ways!

First up: A Peaceful Sunday Afternoon!

Join us at Bull Run Warrior Retreat on December 15 from 2 - 4 pm.

Escape the hustle and bustle of shopping and come take a tour of the retreat house + property.
Girl Scouts will be serving hot cider and cookies and we will share our vision of a place of refuge and relaxation for our wounded, ill and injured Warriors + Families.

The property is beautiful and quiet and the front lawn has some big trees filled with clusters of mistletoe - which makes for a romantic stroll!

 


If you are still searching for a special Christmas gift, the remaining Limited Edition Mistletoe Forest Ornaments (made from mistletoe and barberries harvested at the retreat) will be available.

 Finally - Share a classic Christmas event with friends + family!

We are ever-so-excited to announce that Gainesville United Methodist Church is
hosting a benefit concert on behalf of SOWW.
If that wasn't enough - we were thrilled to hear that the guest artists

Come experience the Christmas classics performed and arranged by the very best!
(I have visions of "It's A Wonderful Life" running through my mind -- this will surely be an "Old School" Christmas Night Out!)
