"Christmas in July" ~ The Beacon for July 12, 2012

Christmas time comes but once a year.  BUT NOT AT THE LIFEHOUSE!   I was speaking with Santa last week and he shared with me what good little boys and girls you have been.  Heather, our team and I are well aware of this too.   We know the quality of people that you are.  We see how committed you have been to your health and wellbeing.  We are privileged to experience your kindness, warmth and integrity on a regular basis working for with you here at The Lifehouse.   We are overjoyed being a part of your lives and are so grateful that you have included us as part of yours.  In fact so much so, we have decided to honor you with a special day, a day for all the good little boys and girls in the area, a day we are calling “Christmas in July”. 

We hope that you can join us Wednesday July 25^th for our Christmas in July Community Celebration event.  This is a chance for you to receive, pay it forward and give back.

Receive:  We will be serving with extended adjusting hours, from 9:00 AM onwards, complimentary adjustments, snacks, and entertainment throughout the day.  There will be also a prize draw with donations from our various sponsors.  (see list of generous sponsors below).  Let us spoil you, let us fill your life force tank and let us thank you for being part of our community. 

Give Back:  In exchange for our generosity we ask of yours as well.  Throughout the day we will be collecting non-perishable food items and money donations on behalf of the Salvation Army.  I am not sure if you are aware of this or not, but summer is when the food banks are actually most in need of support.  Let’s fill the bellies of those in need.

Pay It Forward:  Between July 23^rd and Aug 1^st for all new clients to our office we will offer a complimentary initial visit (value of $100) in exchange for a food donation.  What a great opportunity for you to “Pay It Forward” by helping your family, friends and co-workers heal and optimize their health.   Gift certificates are available at the front desk and we also have some attached to this email.  Remember the benefits of chiropractic are wholistic, virtually everyone with a spine can benefit! 

And if you have not been in to the office for a while, don’t be shy we would love to see you too.  Come say hi and receive a much needed adjustment on us!

Again we SO appreciate working with you and for you in helping Nanaimo be one of the greatest places in the world to live.  As many of you know Heather and I have moved here, and we both feel we couldn’t have picked a better place to live.  Thank you and thanks for receiving, giving back and paying it forward. May you have a very Merry "Christmas in July". 

Season’s greetings,

From all of the Lifehouse crew.
With heartfelt thanks and gratitude from the Salvation Army.
