Dear Church Family,
Thank you each and every volunteer, staff member, and minister for the wonderful gifts you gave to the CARITAS Ladies (May 31 – June 7). You shared our beautiful church home for a week with ladies in a crisis by…
- bringing and working with your children to help set up cots and taking the cots out;
- making and serving meals;
- making sandwiches and cookies;
- packing lunches;
- making pillow cases;
- providing an evening of pedicures and manicures;
- giving your time to listen to stories of life’s challenges;
- teaching how to knit – a skill that they can use forever;
- collecting, sorting, giving, and packing toiletries for each guest;
- providing money for an evening at the food trucks;
- playing bingo;
- lending a listening ear;
- spending the night;
- helping in so many other ways!
If you were unable to join us this time, we would love to have your help on October 18-25, 2014 when we will house 40 men. Please let us know anything that you would like to teach, give, or share with our guests!
Sincerely,
Deb Gray
