A+ Angel Food Distribution, A+ Volunteers!

WOW! Twenty people showed up today to help with our Angel Food distribution. Did they ever come in handy! This was the largest distribution to date. A total of 110 boxes were distributed to an average household size of 4 in each.

While this was going on another team was busily sprucing up the house where our Clothing Closet is located. A fresh new coat of paint makes everything new again. It looks great!

A new youngster came with Restorative Justice. I hope we helped make a difference in her life. She really pitched in and made a difference.

At the end of the day we tallied the hours another teen from Restorative Justice has served. He wanted to know if he was "done". He was. In fact, he went 7 hours over his required time. When I told him, he just smiled, shrugged and said "See you next month. I can come back right?"

That was SO COOL!

I told him we couldn't wait. :-)

See you online,

PS I just checked the weather forecast. Our annual fundraiser is Friday night, February 2. Our signature Mardi Gras event is the largest fundraiser of the year for us. Snow is predicted. Let's all pray it holds off until Saturday.
