Parcel Distribution in Three Settlements!
What a day, and what a joy! We were able to bring food parcels to families in three settlements, – a packet of wors to each person, plus grapes, apples, vegetables, bread, Jimmy sauce, cereal and a Gospel magazine! Such a privilege and blessing for nearly 1000 people total! Mothers, fathers, singles, children, and babies all benefited. We are most grateful for the huge gift of all the meat for this project. It was such a pleasure to be a “Helping Hand” on the ground in this way and see and feel people’s appreciation first-hand.
Supplies for Two Quadriplegic Centres
We are so thankful to be able to support these two centres – with fresh pastries, sauces, rusks, vegetables, meat, flour, and other needed items. Every time we have a chat with these lovely cheerful men and women, we are reminded again how very much we have to be thankful for.
A Vanload of Yoghurt!
This delicious full cream yoghurt was very well received by each family and centre it went to! What a lovely healthy treat!
Fresh Bread!
Bread and Activated magazines for nearly 200 people in two communities! A huge thank you to those that made it possible!
New Year Wishes
There’s more to wish you this New Year
Than simply happiness
A year to live without a fear
Without the loneliness
Of the past year that’s just gone by
With all its many woes
And yet, the sun brightened its sky
And Jesus held us close…
Surprise! Flowers!
Thanks to an amazing surprise donation of flowers – LOTS of flowers – we brought these beautiful touches of joy to over 200 senior citizens in retirement villages around town.
Christmas Supper and Parcels for Senior Citizens
Just before Christmas, we were privileged to be able to provide this senior citizen care home (131 residents) with foodstuffs for Christmas festivities – meat, yoghurt, vegetables, flour, tea, rusks, sauces, and more! And for the nurses, gratitude packs with chocolates and treats.
But that’s not all! Thanks to a kindhearted group of friends, we also delivered a Christmas pack for every resident, with many different hygiene products and goodies!
