Open Door Christmas Meals

Christmas Meals Made With Christmas Spirit

On Christmas Day, I joined together with a fantastic group of volunteers and member of my team Ted Costa at the Christmas Ham Dinner Preparation and Delivery organized by the Gloucester Capt. Lester S. Wass American Legion Post 3.

The meals were prepared and packed at The Open Door in Gloucester and delivered to seniors, veterans, and others in need by members of Post 3, more than 30 volunteer delivery drivers, and other supporters from the community. We prepared and delivered 460 holiday meals.

Recognized Commander Mark L. Nestor with a special citation honoring not only his 13 years of service as Commander of the Capt. Lester S. Wass American Legion Post 3, but also for being the incredible driving force behind ensuring no one is alone and hungry for the holidays. 

What a gift to have spent his last holiday meal as Commander - together, in service of others
