This has been a good week. Actually a good couple of weeks. Yesterday we picked up about 4 tons of rubber gym flooring, donated by Monster Gym. Today, we pick up 126 cases of cold cuts, and Jack Astor's is giving us some dishes. As I type, there are 5 women from Westview Bible Church packaging Ramen noodles for our food bank.
There is something energizing about people's generosity. Whether they are donating goods, money or giving of their time, it is encouraging to those of us who do this every day. Thank you to all who give to this work.
Peace,

Good News
We received a phone call today from one of the families we serve. The lady called to say that she was very thankful for all the help we have given her family, but they no longer needed our food support. She found employment. She can now take care of her own family.
This is the kind of news that makes me smile. We are so happy for her. I can't imagine how good that phone call must have felt to her. This is why we do what we do.
We heard from 3 other families this week as we did our check-ins that they no longer need our services. It is good to see families getting on their feet. So far it has been a good week.
Peace,
