December Theme is Winter Candle by Jeron Ashford

When each family at the diverse Juniper Court apartment complex needs something to light up the dark of winter, the stumpy, lumpy candle provides a glow brighter than the fanciest taper, revealing the true spirit of each holiday it illuminates.

We will be reading this selection to kick off our Community HOLIDAY EVENT! Please join us for the FREE & FUN Yearly Celebration!
