Together, our church and along with family and friends, has provided 15 homeless individuals with coats and shoes and just in time for the rainy weather!
Some feedback from Jim & Beth Beller who coordinate Albany's free shower program is that all recipients of coats and shoes are so very grateful for all gifts received! Many expressed how they LOVE their new coats & shoes!
A special THANK YOU to
Krista Winchester
&
Doris Lock
who are our representatives to the DHWG homeless coalition program and who helped make all of this happen!
And a big THANK YOU, Church Family, for your generosity and love for those who are in need of an extra measure of God's love and grace!
"Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, others will praise God for the obedience that accompanies your confession of the gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing with them and with everyone else. And in their prayers for you their hearts will go out to you, because of the surpassing grace God has given you."
-2 Corinthians 9:13-14 NIV
