Rick Cryder and His Angels of Love Visit Children’s Hospital of Orange County


Rick Cryder and His Angels of Love Visit Children’s Hospital of Orange County

This past Friday, Cryder delivered angels to Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles. Tomorrow, 200 more kids, spending their Christmas at CHOC, will be receiving theirs

Over the years, Rick Cryder, founder of Angels of Love, has taught hundreds of inmates the craft of welding and given them a chance to give something back while rehabilitating their lives in the process. The program is one of many inmate programs in the Orange County Jail system. .

“A hospital is the last place a child wants to be on Christmas Eve. Unfortunately, illness doesn’t always “stand down” for the Holidays,” reads an OCSD press release announcing the Angels of Love visit to the Children’s Hospital of Orange County.

Tomorrow morning 10 a.m., at Children’s Hospital of Orange County, some 200 kids will have an angel watching over them as they struggle with illness this holiday season. The beautiful, hand crafted stained glass angels, encased in 24K gold, come courtesy of inmates at the James A. Musick Facility and Rick Cryder, founder of Angels of Love.

Since 2002, angels have also been given to the families of each fallen law enforcement officer and fire fighter in the State of California, along with many others in our nation. Angels of Love has donated hundreds of angels to families who have experienced tragedies in their lives. These include families of the military killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Virginia Tech shootings, Oklahoma City bombing, Columbine, 911 terrorist attacks and other world events.

But Cryder’s ministry takes on an extra special significance during the holidays. He doesn’t exactly don the red suit, and he’s not bringing that shiny new bicycle, but he does bring some much needed “comfort and joy” to children and their families. This past Friday, he delivered about 100 angels to Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles. Tomorrow, 200 more kids, who will likely be spending their Christmas at CHOC, will be receiving a precious and beautiful gift, hand-made by the unlikeliest of elves.
