“Christmas tree sales happen at Carmel United Methodist Church, my church, and we basically do the sales to make money for our mission trips that the youth goes on, and the rest of the money goes to the church. It’s a great experience to help other people get a tree and help yourself in the future to get the experience to go on a trip. Those sales go toward those trips to go help people. We build houses; we sometimes run kids’ camps while on those trips… the sales from the trees would help in the long run.”
