Today hundreds look forward lo the Christmas parly. Many families plan their Christmas service activities around the party, including even the youngest of family members. What began with simple soups and song is now a wonderful Christmas afternoon with foods of all kinds, gilts, buggy rides, bonfires and music. The party will be held at the Frodsham ranch, 230 E. 1700 South, from 3:30 p.m. until about 6:30 p.m. on Dec- - 20. Farmington residents come from the whole city to welcome the homeless participants who are brought from Salt Lake and Ogden shelters. . 1'. We also have many families from below the poverty level income, said Barbara Frodsham. Since many of the homeless people have families with small children, wrapped gifts are always needed. - Volunteers can bring wrapped gifts for the store, chili, soups, Christmas trees, clothing and goodies. Other suggestions of needed items include rolls, hot chocolate and candy. If you would like to bring a gift, write the age and sex of the individual on the outside of the gift. The Frodshams will begin accepting donated items early Saturday morning. We are really excited this year to add two new activities, said Frodsham. In addition to the animal petting farm, the wagon rides, the program and singd ing, we will have a nativity scene and a fishing pond. There will also be bonfires for roasting marshmallows. The party last year welcomed more than 500 people, and more than 1 50 of those were homeless. We want a lot of people here to come and enjoy and to help. Its all outside, so remember a coat and gloves, Frodsham said. Volunteers are needed to man the serving tables, help with the gifts, bring the homeless and take them home and to help set up and clean up. Leftovers of any kind are given to those around the city who are in need.

For most of us it is a time when there are not enough hours in the day to do everything we want to do. For some of us it is a time of frustration because we cannot afford those gifts we want to purchase. Still others experience great loneliness because those with whom we traditionally share this occasion are no longer with us. As a result we overeat, overspend and overschedule - trying to compensate for the inadequacies we feel in our lives.
