Friends, community members gather for annual Christmas meal

Friends, community members gather for annual Christmas meal

In faithful hearts, strangers don't really exist. "They're not completely strangers," Sven Black said Thursday. "They're all my brothers and sisters in Christ. That's the most important thing in life to me, is other people and not material possessions." Black and his girlfriend Zelda Loera live in downtown Coeur d'Alene but decided to travel to Hayden to enjoy the free community Christmas meal offered by True North Church.
