Lazarus House invites you to a Community Christmas Brunch

Lazarus House invites you to join its staff, guests and many supporters at the annual Christmas Brunch Monday, Dec. 25, in the fellowship hall, 214 Walnut St. in St. Charles. The event will be 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., with dining beginning at noon.

The brunch has become quite a tradition in the community. The potluck-style buffet, which is free, gives you the opportunity to enjoy food, entertainment and fellowship.

In addition to the guests at Lazarus House enjoying the generosity and kindness from those who attend, the celebration also has become the family meal for many who live by themselves or do not have family in the area.

Come meet new friends and share in the festivities with the neighbors in your community.

If you want to cook, note that the food should arrive in a disposable container, and come hot and ready to serve between 11:30 to 11:45 a.m.
