It's difficult to summarize a year in the life of RCI, but we have tried our best in our recent annual report.

When asked to describe the Ripple community, a friend of ours used to reply with a simple invitation to "Come and see." We're grateful for friends - new and old - who have accepted this invitation and joined us recently at the Community Building Center. Many thanks to the group from First Presbyterian Church of Allentown that joined us on Saturday bearing games, snacks, and warm smiles!

We hosted our second annual holiday party at the Community Building Center yesterday. We celebrated with yummy food, a gift exchange, and games. Many thanks to the food bringers, gift bringers, and joy bringers! We appreciate it more than you know. Merry Christmas, from our big family to yours!

We're transitioning from fall to the winter holidays at RCI! This week we were particularly impressed by everyone's leaf decorating skills and by Carrie's hand made Christmas stockings.
