I continue to be thankful for the blessings that have come our way. The blessing of giving to others has certainly touched my heart. Last week at The Union Mission in Roanoke Rapids we had the opportunity to give some 1600 meals to others in need. Many thanks to those volunteers who gave of their time and finances to make this community touch a reality.
We made the decision to give out bags of food daily to those who came by Union Mission with a need. The bags of groceries went out the front door and volunteers brought donations of food in the back door. The Union Mission will continue this practice of giving out bags of groceries as long as we have food available.
I am grateful to Gloria Caudle of The Faith House, who through their ministry in Enfield, NC, gave out food and dinners last week. We are thankful to have the opportunity to partner with Faith House; a shelter for women and children.
Murfreesboro Baptist Church has gifted The Union Mission with knitted hats. We have received a large box of hats from the church and will receive another box of hats to give to those in need this coming week. Thank you dear friends for your generosity.
Showers have been installed at Union Mission for the improvement of the bathroom. Due to the generosity of churches and individuals, the men’s program will be strengthened by more participants because of the improved shower facility.
It is indeed a privilege to serve our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in northeastern NC.
