Excerpts from a letter from our adopted family who received food and gifts from us during the 2009 Holiday season:
As you know I am a single mom with three children. They are my pride and joy. When the holidays rolled around my hours were bouncing all over the place. I was doing my best to keep up with all my bills. All I kept asking myself was how am I going to get a tree? What am I going to do about gifts?
This Christmas me and my children were truly blessed. I want everyone to know they are truly special in God's eyes. Our Christmas tree was so beautiful. Thank you so much! We had such a great time decorating it. The evening Sue and Bill brought over the gifts, I was again speechless. Sometimes I don't show my emotions in front of people but when Sue and Bill left, I cried tears of happiness.
From the bottom of my heart, the food, gifts, Christmas tree, I thank you all so much. Words really can't describe how thankful I am.

This is to say thank you to every blessed soul who reached out to our family during the holiday season which would not have been special without you all. Your kindness was genuine and unexpected but greatly appreciated by our family. The wonderful generosity you displayed for us brought everyone great joy and enjoyment.
May God keep his light shining brightly upon you all every day of your lives, not just because of your kindness to us but because of who you are. Life is about sharing, caring and giving, loving and living.
