What was wonderful about the dinner held on Monday, October 24, 2011; at the Goodwill Career Center conference room, were the volunteers understanding that each one of them plays an important part in the lives of the families that are part of Community Welcome House.
With each introduction they expressed what a wonderful experience it is to come and be part of making a difference. Those that share their gifts of giving are the dessert ladies who come on Monday evening and bring a different dessert to share, our book club volunteer who brings discussions on the book they are currently reading, the Mary Kay consultant that shares her time with makeovers and then gives gifts of lotion and other goodies, the counselors who come and work in groups for self-esteem to individual counseling and teaching life skills, those that host a Bible study, outings, teach crochet, answer the telephone, clean the safe haven once a month, share Thanksgiving Day with us, tutoring, mentoring, IT specialist, security system specialist, lawn care services, repairs from plumbing to electrician from floor to ceiling and those who work in our thrift store, we couldn’t do without them. God blesses us with them and in turn they are blessed by coming.
We thank each one for the wonderful gift of love and their time they share with us.
