It was an incredible day! On Father’s Day we held an event to show the Love of our Father in Heaven! After loading our vans with dozens of boxes of clothes, shoes, linens, blankets, and more, we drove out to a community hall in Scotsdene. We worked with a local leader who both personally knows and deeply cares for the downtrodden in the area.
When we arrived and began to set up, there were already many waiting, and more and more and more arrived as time passed!
The clothes and shoes were laid out by types, age, gender, etc, and bit by bit, all the people came past the tables and chose several things to take home! From babies in arms to elderly holding on to a loved one’s arm, all were accommodated! It was so beautiful to see their grateful smiles and amazement at receiving – completely free of charge – all manner of lovely items which they could never have afforded! When leaving the hall, each adult received a tissue roll – and the fathers and children got chocolates! Thank you Jesus for the privilege of being “a helping hand” to these dear ones.
