A Christmas Miracle in Moorpark

Every year, the Moorpark Pantry Plus hosts a Christmas Gift program providing hundreds of families and children with Christmas gifts and festive activities. Many organizations, churches, and individuals in the Moorpark community join together in spreading Christmas joy at this event, and this year the people of Moorpark created a 'Christmas miracle'. 

With only one day remaining before the big day, Program Coordinator, Patricia Calderon, received devastating news that nearly all of the toys she anticipated having would not be delivered in time for the event. Hundreds of parents would not be able to provide their children with Christmas this year. Or so it seemed. 

Patricia quickly began making phone calls to the Friends of Moorpark, local agencies and organizations, including the Moorpark Police Department, and many benefactors to the Pantry Plus. The entire community rose to the occasion and in less than 24 hours enough toys and gifts had been donated to meet the need of this year and next! 

"It was a clear example of the Providence of God and the goodwill of the people in the Moorpark community... Gifts were coming in by the truckloads and my phone was ringing all day with people asking what they could bring," says Patricia, reflecting on the event. 

On behalf of Catholic Charities of Ventura County, the Moorpark Pantry Plus staff, volunteers, and clients, we say thank you to all who helped create a Moorpark 'Christmas miracle'. ​
