Sometimes it feels like the world has gone crazy. I have
even begun to wonder if we are in the “end times” (not really—I have more faith
in humanity than that). However, between the pandemic and the awful vision of
George Floyd dying our hearts are so hurting. We are in need of His grace and
mercy more than ever.
It’s been heartbreaking for us to not be able to serve our
clients—I ache for those who are stuck in small spaces with many people. I ache
even more for those who are stuck someplace alone. Suicides are on the
rise---Covid is killing in more than one way. Hunger is a very real issue,
although our food bank is so on this—thank you God for those volunteers and
donors!
We have been distributing hygiene, cleaning and baby items
through our doors, as well as emergency food. This is OUR “phase 1”---we hope
to move to our phase 2 as soon as we get all of our Plexiglas barriers in
place. At that time, we will be allowing clients to come in and shop for
clothing, although at a rate of only 4 people in at a time. More details will
be posted when we are ready for this phase.
In the meantime, please know that we (I have an amazing
cadre of volunteers, who are all prayer warriors!) are praying for all of you,
for our city/county, for our state and nation and for the world.
God be with all of you!
