Thanks from an Hedges Chapel Helping Hands Family:
Although all of our HH families verbally expressed their thanks, we received this note which are passing along at her request. "Good morning Judy I wanted to tell you how thankful I was for Christmas. I appreciate everyone and if you could tell everyone thank you from us ♥️💚 God bless" AR
Christmas Angels Gifts:
Thanks to all who adopted a child or two for Christmas from among our Helping Hands families. Your clothing gifts were distributed at our December 18 food pickup with many heartfelt comments of gratitude from the parents. Blessings to you all!
Thanks to the local SNL group for their generosity to HCHH!
We cannot thank Betty M. and the "Some Neat Ladies" group enough for reaching out to support the Outreach Committee's Helping Hands project by supplying selected small kitchen appliances to each of our 10 families. The basic goal of this project is to provide fresh food, recipes and resources for these families to be able to grow and cook more of their own food in these difficult times. These items will help tremendously.
Thanks to Volunteers Deborah and Stephen, Sue W., Dale, David M. and David O., Katherine, Atley W. and John who joined the Outreach Committee in another successful Helping Hands food distribution on December 17 &18. See below if you'd like to help us in January.
Volunteers Needed for Helping Hands Food Program on January 14 or 15.
What better way to celebrate the new year than by giving an hour or two of your time to the Outreach Commintee's Helping Hands food distribution project!
n July, we started our monthly food bank project, HelpingDecember Hands, for 10 families (over 60 people) who received our holiday food baskets last Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter. Since we are not asking for regular food contributions, you may be wondering how you can help with this project. An hour or two of your time would be a great help in connection with one of our food distribution days. We especially need help for January 14 (eve) or 15 (various tasks and times).
A little bit of your time will boost your spirits while helping us to assist families in need by sharing our blessings. If you would like to volunteer or have your questions answered, please call me at 304-754-5806 (landline; texts not possible). Thanks for considering how you can help.
Judy Snyder and the Outreach Committee: Jo Ann Abell, Vicki Cooper, Sheila Joy, Natasha Martien, Krista O’Brien (Vice Chair), Laura Powell, Gayle Remenick, and Judy Snyder (Chair).
