The 26th Annual Christmas Contest was a heartwarming celebration of creativity and generosity at CHRISTUS St. Elizabeth. Various departments adorned table-top Christmas trees, each a labor of love, to aid the silent auction benefiting the Children’s Miracle Network. Together, we raised over $7,500 to support this noble cause.

Community judges lent their expertise, recognizing outstanding efforts and spreading cheer through awards:

• Emergency Department snagged the Grand Prize, Crowd Favorite & Most Beautiful accolades with their nostalgic “In My Barbie Era” theme, a whimsical delight.
• Admitting showcased their ingenuity with the “Merry Magnolia” tree, earning them the title of Most Creative.
• CHRISTUS Urgent Care exemplified CHRISTUS spirit with a cancer-fighting hero theme, clinching the Best CHRISTUS Spirit award.

And the excitement didn’t end there! The raffle winner, Kim Parrott, added another layer of joy to this charitable event. Through these collective efforts, funds were raised to support the Children’s Miracle Network at CHRISTUS Southeast Texas Health System, making a meaningful difference in the lives of the children in our community.
