Texting- The new Thank You note.

Sometimes in ministry one is amazed by the things people say and the way they act, and sometimes that amazement even comes from something good. At Jesus's Helping Hands we use call, voicemail, and text to schedule times for families to pick up their food boxes. We recently received the following text from a lady who has been receiving food for some time. A medical condition impares her ability to work making her available (although with limited means) to raise her 4 grandchildren. It's moments like this that remind us what a difference a box of food can make. "Jesus' Helping Hands) I want to thank everyone there that is involved in this organization. It really means the difference on alot of days as to having just enough to eat or having another dish with dinner. So i do want you ALL to know that the effort and love you all put forward is truly appreciated in out home.. now that we only have one income, it is almost impossible to have enough food after the bills are paid. And sometimes just getting the bread or the fruits and vegetables is really nice because the perishable goods always run out before the end of the month.. Again THANK YOU JESUS HELPING HANDS :-) J.C. and my family.. Just to let y'all know how much y'all mean to us." Thank you J.C. for this thoughtful message and for reminding us of why we do what we do.
