Women of Faith - List of 10-Most-Needed items for Welcome Kits
Jean Arnott
* This hangs on the wall of our most recent arrival - a beautiful young married couple. Husband had interpreted for the U.S. military. They will make a tiny apartment - which needed a thorough cleaning by volunteers before we unloaded anything - their first home in America. They are grateful, humble, and have wonderful devoted volunteers to walk the walk with them. They had a good time deciding which wall to hang their reminder of welcome on. They settled on the most prominent wall in their tiny living room.
