NPD purchases toys for children BY JEFFREY CULLEN-DEAN jeff rey@newnan.com

ewnan Police Officers helped purchase Christmas gifts for 112 children on Saturday at the department's annual Christmas with a Cop event. The kids were brought to Walmart in Newnan, where they were given up to $250 and spent the morning shopping with NPD officers. The officers and kids were required to wear masks in the store, and social distancing was encouraged. The NPD reached out to school counselors to find students and families who would benefit the most from a christmas shopping spree, according to Sgt. Edward Lee, the NPD officer who coordinated the event. "They see the kids and

he Kroger store located on Bullsboro Drive dropped off some Christmas spirit at Newnan Fire Station 1, the Newnan Police Department and Coweta County Sheriff ’s Office Tuesday. Johnny Brown, store leader for the Kroger on Bullsboro, said the Kroger Atlanta Division African American Associate Resource Group and all Kroger Atlanta Division stores were donating to their local first responders to say thank you.
“We know 2020 has been more challenging than any of us could have predicted,” Brown said. “From a global pandemic to civil unrest, we have all been affected in one way or another.” Kroger employees dropped off nonperishable snacks to the first responders Tuesday. “Please know that we stand with you, our first responders, and are grateful for the sacrifices you make on behalf of our community,” Brown said. “It is because of your service that we can serve our neighbors.”
“Twas the night before Jesus came and all through the place, Not a creature was praying, not one on their face. Their Bibles were lain on the shelf without care, In hopes that Jesus would not come there. The children were dressing to crawl into bed, Not one ever kneeling or bowing a head. And Mom in her rocker with baby on her lap, Was watching the Late Show while I took a nap. When out of the East there arose such a clatter, I sprang to my feet to see what was the matter. Away to the window I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash! When what to my wondering eyes should appear, But angels proclaiming that Jesus was here. With a light like the sun sending forth a bright ray, I knew in a moment this must be THE DAY! The light of His face made me cover my head, It was Jesus returning just like He had said. And though I possessed worldly wisdom and wealth, I cried when I saw Him in spite of myself. In the Book of Life which He held in His hand, Was written the name of every saved man. He spoke not a word as He searched for my name; When He said “It’s not here” my head hung in shame. The people whose names had been written with love, He gathered to take to His Father above. With those who were ready He rose without a sound, While all the rest were left standing around. I fell to my knees, but it was too late, I had waited too long and thus sealed my fate. I stood and I cried as they rose out of sight; Oh, if only I had been ready tonight. In the words of this poem the meaning is clear, The coming of Jesus is drawing near. There’s only one life and when comes the last call, We’ll find that the Bible was true after all!”

know what they're going through," he said. "We want to prevent crime and show these young people there are other opportunities besides drugs. That's the
MarkeTplace main reason we do it." "Watching the kids come up and get something they wouldn't be able to get and see the smiles on their faces – that makes it worth it," said Cpl. Adam Griffith, an NPD officer. Normally, the kids eat breakfast with the officers and are escorted to Walmart in a parade of police vehicles. This year,
because of COVID-19 concerns, boxed breakfasts were supplied by O'Charley's in Newnan, and the kids arrived at the store separately from the officers, without the parade. Patrick Scalambrino, general manager of O'Charley's in Newnan, said the restaurant provided the meals as a way to be more involved in the community.

"To take part in something that doesn't happen every day is a huge win for me," he said. Russell Mathis, Asset Protection Manager at Walmart, said he works with the NPD to make the event "the most positive experience" for the kids. "We plan it all year long. After this, we'll start planning for next year," he said.
