Dear Lorena, I came right over when I got home today and read your email. It is heartbreaking that so many are still in need of basic essentials.
I would be glad to place a link with your post on my blog so others can be made aware of the help still needed and pass the word to others on my email list.
All through the year helping others is an important part of life, but even more so now at Christmas time.
You are a dear my friend and God has richly blessed you with a giving heart.
Thank you for stopping by today, your kind comment and special friendship.
Love you, Celestina Marie
Sweet Lorena...
I will do a post on this later this evening. I'm sorry I haven't touched base with you...my life has been a whirlwind. I have to have surgery on my hands just after Christmas and so squeezing everything in before hand is a challenge. I won't be able to do anything for six weeks and it's stressing me out I'm afraid. :( :( :(
Still...I have so much to be grateful for!
I'm happy to help any way I can. You are blessing the world. You are the hands and feet of Christ.
Your are loved...
Love,
Rebecca
Lorena...
How is your response to your sweet charity and big heart going? I'm praying people will open up the pocket books as well as their hearts and help those in need. Earlier in November Steve and I donated through the Red Cross. I sooo hope everyone will do a little bit.
Blessings...Love, R
Lorena, thank you for Indra's address. I sent off two boxes today, so I hope they will help a little. I hope you had a good response.
