Christmas was very special for the guests at the Central Wyoming Rescue Mission thanks to the incredible generosity of countless individuals, families, churches, groups and businesses who showered us with donations over the holiday season.
    From dinner items and dessert, warm hats, gloves and socks, clothing and shoes, to phone cards and movie passes, our guests were blessed immeasurably by the outpouring of love shown by so many of you.
