“Fear of the unknown can keep you up all night, but faith makes one fine pillow.”
– Philip Gulley, Pastor
Throughout our history, nothing brings our nation closer together than disasters or threats to our national security. We are Americans by choice and the Grace of God. We don't run from a fight; we run toward it, regardless of the cost. Take pride in our women and men that are tirelessly battling this virus head-on. In these uncertain times, it is okay to be afraid; it's okay to be nervous. But, be assured that we will prevail. We always have, and we always will.
While many of us have opinions on the impact of the Covid 19 virus, one fact is clear, the less fortunate, the hungry, and the homeless will pay a very high price. Let us pull together and donate to the organizations below. They need all the help we can muster.
I would like to ask everyone for one last favor. In a crisis, it is easy to become center focused. Take a moment out of your day and call a family member or check on a neighbor. See how they're doing. Remember, it's the little things that make a difference in our lives.
The Food Pantry is open, and you can make financial donations via their website.
