Rutgers Church is hosting a staged reading of A Christmas Carol on Saturday to raise money for refugees. Think about it: you can watch Ebenezer Scrooge come to terms with his own failings while feeling better than him because you gave to people in need. Win win.
Rutgers Church plans to sponsor a refugee family.
A Christmas Carol
At Rutgers Church
73rd and Broadway, 5th floor
Saturday, 12/12 at 7 pm (only lasts 45 minutes!)
$15 suggested donation but give what you can
Please limit comments to 150 words and keep them civil and relevant to the article at hand. Comments are closed after six days. Our primary goal is to create a safe and respectful space where a broad spectrum of voices can be heard. We welcome diverse viewpoints and encourage readers to engage critically with one another’s ideas, but never at the expense of civility. Disagreement is expected—even encouraged—but it must be expressed with care and consideration. Comments that take cheap shots, escalate conflict, or veer into ideological warfare detract from the constructive spirit we aim to cultivate. A detailed statement on comments and WSR policy can be read here.
No one ever felt better than Scrooge did, when he woke up and realized it was a dream.
Better they should give the money to all the homeless (local refugees) camped out all over Broadway.
Rutgers gives plenty of money to homeless causes and host a weekend homeless shelter in their church building each weekend.
No donations from me since this church flies a gay pride flag, but not an American flag.
