Former church helping families in need for the holidays

A former church in Rensselaer is being turned into Santa’s workshop.

Victory Christian Church is once again delivering holiday gifts to hundreds of families.

Pastor Charlie Muller says the need is even greater this year.

Calls have been coming in even before Thanksgiving. Since then, the list of families in need is already over 200.

Pastor Charlie explained to us just how difficult it can be to meet the demand:

“We revived the feeding program, and now our outreach is partnering with this facility and we are actually feeding people on Saturday’s we are using this facility for all of our outreach, and this year we had such a high demand, oh my goodness.”

This is the 28th year Victory Church has been doing an outreach over the holidays.
