Longing for Community
Every year, the holiday season seems to start earlier—decorations go up and purchases are made in preparation for Christmas long before December....
We’re hoping you’ll help to make someone’s day. Pull out the construction paper, scissors and glitter and create a Valentine for a man, woman or child in one of our shelters. Maybe include a favorite Bible verse about God’s love, a prayer or a short note of encouragement. You could even throw in a chocolate bar. Ask your mom or dad to deliver your creation to 1224 E Trent Avenue and we’ll make sure to pass it along to one of our guests. It’s sure to bring a smile and brighten someone’s day.
“And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity,” Colossians 3:14.
