Help Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon
At this Year’s Holiday Party, the CNA will be collecting donations for the Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon’s (EMO) HIV Day Center.
The HIV Day Center is a non-denominational project of the EMO and is housed at the Ainsworth United Church of Christ located at NE 30th Avenue and Ainsworth Street. This center provides over 700 meals each month to low income people dealing with HIV in addition to providing counseling, clothing, showers, recreational therapy, access to computers & phones, and mutual support.
The CNA encourages neighbors to bring one or more of the following items to the Holiday Party to donate to the clientele at the HIV Day Center:
- Warm Sleeping Bags in good condition
- Shampoo and other miscellaneous toiletries, particularly for men

There is an elevator to the 2nd floor for those folks who are unable to use the stairs. All residents and business owners of the Concordia Neighborhood are invited to the free holiday festivities on Tuesday, December 7th in lieu of our General Meeting. The holiday party is a great way to meet new neighbors and mix and mingle with friends, old and new, in a festive and family-friendly atmosphere.
This year Concordia University’s Brass Ensemble led by Dr. William Kuhn is going to be playing between about 6:30 and 7:15pm. We are also delighted to be serving homemade Mexican food provided by Rosie Gomez. The CNA will also be providing nonalcoholic beverages. Additionally, we will be having a cookie decoration station for children so they can create their own tasty treats. New this year will be the Pie Walk for neighbors of all ages. The lucky winners will take home a delicious pie donated by some of our local businesses.
Also, we are pleased to announce that one of our own CNA Board members, Isham Harris, will be leading us in a few festive holiday songs. If you would like to participate in providing additional music for our event, please contact Katie at 503-449-9690. We hope to see you all there for this fun end-of-the-year event!
