Every year, Arlington Woods takes up an offering during our Christmas Eve service for a local organization. This special tradition allows us to extend God’s love and generosity beyond our church walls, making a meaningful impact in our community. This year, we are excited to partner with FAMSAC.   FAMSAC was created in 1969 when a group of volunteers from local churches banded together to help families in need in the Bells Corners area during the Christmas season. The program expanded to provide emergency food assistance year-round in response to steadily growing demand. Today, FAMSAC provides assistance to about 400 local families every month. In December, their gift card program provides additional support for about 400 households. FAMSAC now has a permanent home at Hollyer House, an affordable housing complex with a community hub.
