\"\"Valley City\u00a0 (Chamber (12-6-21)\u00a0 Valley City Mayor, Dave Carlsrud has his latest message to Valley City Residents:<\/p>\n

A \u201cWhite Christmas\u201d?\u00a0We received a pretty white snow Saturday night and at this time of the year, it is likely to be here for a while.<\/p>\n

Last Thursday night the Valley City Area Chamber of Commerce facilitated the \u201cParade of Lights \u201c.\u00a0It was a beautiful December evening with a great crowd and a big number of parade units participating.\u00a0Kudos to all the folks who prepared floats, cars, dogs, trucks, etc., as it seemed evident that considerable work and passion were involved.\u00a0Thank you all.<\/p>\n

One of our local Salvation Army Bell Ringers shared a nice story of benevolence.\u00a0\u201cA college age person walked by without leaving anything in the kettle. \u00a0A few minutes later he returned with a hand full of coins for the kettle.\u00a0He said, \u201cI cleaned out my car\u201d.\u00a0The person shared, due to shortage of money, he had taken the year off school to earn enough for the next semester. \u00a0\u00a0Really nice! \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0** Ringing the Bell can be very heartwarming, why not give it a try?\u00a0Call 701-541-1418 or 701-840-1357 to sign up.<\/p>\n

This is a time of the year when people of different Faiths celebrate special events within their respective religions.\u00a0Let us be compassionate and respectful of all, especially of those who may worship differently than we do.<\/p>\n

Be \u201cprudent\u201d as COVID is still lingering.<\/p>\n

Thank you to contributors again this week.<\/p>\n

\u201cCompassion is an action word with no boundaries.<\/em><\/strong>\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>(Prince)<\/p>\n
