It was a day of giving thanks this past Saturday when Care-A-Van was on Central Avenue for Grocery Distribution. It was one of our busiest days at this location!
We saw over 47 families with a total of 121 family members that were in need of food.
Two young seniors from Kane Area High School in Kane PA, Marissa Walters and Natalee Anderson were volunteering with us today. They had a thankful box that they used to encourage those in need to share what they were thankful for and any prayer requests they had. At the end of they day , Elder Ron prayed over the requests. Pictured above is the team and some residents of the neighborhood. We always pray before leaving a neighorhood.
There were many needs and prayer requests today.
Marissa and a little Robert. Marissa has a dream one day to be a physician asisstant. Today was a great opportuntiy for her to help take care of God's little ones!
A special thanks to Marissa and Natalee for volunteering with us today!
So as the picture says- What are you thankful for today? Hmm- me, this PR Director is thankful for the week-end I had with my daughter and her friend and how they had the opportunity to see the needs of others and how they had a heart to want to make a difference..
Have a Blessed Thanksgiving!
