Fr. Christopher Smith welcomes a very close family member to the show: his brother, Tad Smith. Among his many talents to go with his diverse background, Tad currently serves in the role of Educator Coordinator of the Garden of Hope at the Cantlay Center in Santa Ana, CA.
Held at San Antonio de Padua Parish in Anaheim Hills, the “Color Me Fashion” show involved the Chapter’s 45 members and the Knights of Columbus Council 9195, who served lunch to the more than 200 women in attendance.
The event is generously supported by the Order of Malta Western Association U.S.A. This year, 927 families were served during the Thanksgiving distribution for a total of 5,562 individuals.
