The Gift of Time
Story 147
It’s the most wonderful time of the year — but it can quickly feel like the most hectic, running from event to event, hosting and cleaning, all while continuing to juggle your daily commitments of work, school and more. The hustle and bustle can leave us craving more connection and more memories to cherish. This Christmas, the greatest gift you can give is your time.
Celebrate family in Adventist Health’s second-annual Christmas short film.
Filmed in part at Adventist Health and Rideout, we hope our friends at Tharp Road Clinic are able to spot a familiar face or two. A special thank you to Adventist Health and Rideout president Chris Champlin for allowing this story to be captured authentically in one of our very own clinics. We also thank practice manager Julie Buck, who welcomed our Adventist Health film team while ensuring no interruptions were made to patient care.
