Christmas Meal at Evangel Temple

FORT SMITH, Ark. (KFTA) — Each year, Evangel Temple in Fort Smith hosts a Christmas lunch aimed at feeding the homeless community. The church has been doing it for 31 years.
“They know that we are giving back during this Christmas season, and we truly believe that Christmas is about Christ,” said Ryan Rose, Evangel’s associate pastor. “There’s a lot of people who didn’t go to a Christmas party this year, a lot of people who aren’t spending Christmas with family, a lot of people not celebrating.”
Rose said around 300 people came and enjoyed a traditional Christmas meal this year. The lunch was hosted in the church’s gymnasium, where kids also got to meet Santa Clause. He sat in a chair near the front and talked to nearly 50 kids. Read the entire story HERE, or watch the video below.
