The City Mission decorates each of its four shelters during the Christmas season and shuttles residents to Oglebay Park to see the Christmas lights. The organization also provides presents to every resident and toys for them to take home to their kids. Additionally, City Mission hosts a safe and sober New Year’s Eve celebration, which is open to the whole community. It has grown every year since its inception. Last year, 250 people attended the party.
