<p>Volunteers from Forty-Fort Presbyterian, Huntsville Christian and Nebo Baptist churches are working together to hold a fundraiser for the Salvation Army&#8217;s Kirby Family House in Wilkes-Barre. The Kirby Family House provides homeless families with children with safe temporary housing. &#8220;No Room At The Inn&#8221; is a display of hundreds of nativity scenes from around the world that will be on display at the Forty-Fort Presbyterian Church on December 4, 5 and 6. A Christmas Shop, Caf&#233;, and Silent Auction will also be available. Admission is free but donations are accepted through Salvation Army Red Kettles that will be placed throughout the venue. Preparing for the event, from left, are: Lt. Sharon Tressler, Salvation Army; Vicky Bilby, Nebo Baptist Church; Lisa Carother, director, Kirby Family House; Lt. Ted Tressler, Salvation Army.</p><style>
