Thank
You
We would like to thank everyone at your church
for all the food and support you are giving Jo and Jim. It has been
such a blessing to them. Each visit and phone call brings her
comfort and encouragement. - Mike and Teresa
Hurst
Our hearts are overwhelmed with gratitude and
we can't express how much your caring means. Not many ever act upon
their faith with such great response as you have toward my daughter
and me. May God multiply to all of you a hundred-fold. I'm sure He
is well pleased with such sacrifices. Your love and kindness means
more than words alone can say. From the bottom of our hearts, thank
you. - Alice Shafer and Debbie Parker Prayer
