The Senoritas enjoyed a gift exchange as they continued to nurture new friendships. The mothers also enjoyed getting to know one another better while participating in a cookie exchange. Photographs of each mother -daughter pair were taken standing in front of Mrs. Rogers' beautifully decorated Christmas tree. It was a fun afternoon for all!

8 MGNM Holiday Lunch At our Holiday luncheon on December 15th, Our Guild Members were so generous and brought new toys to donate to less fortunate New Mexico children. After the luncheon, we delivered the gifts to Albuquerque Christian Children s Home. Our donated gifts will be put to wonderful use for new children arriving at the home. They have as many as 16 children at one time in a home setting with bedrooms, bath, living and kitchen areas. They try to make their stay as warm and welcoming as possible, as feel like home. Page 8
