Mission accomplished!
Thank you to all the parents and girls that made possible our Lent project to feed the hungry and quench the thirsty! We made 30 lunch bags for the Aggies for Christ volunteers who devote their weekends to build homes for families in need.
The girls worked diligently to decorate lunch bags with thank you notes, quotes and designs. The next morning they put together 30 bags with one sandwich (choices of ham, chicken breast with cheese, lettuce and tomatoes, mayo and mustard), fruits, pringles, muffin, napkin and a thank you note. We delivered the lunch bags before noon, blessed the food and prayed together with the volunteers. After lunch, we had an opportunity to visit the site, meet the future owner and learn about Habitat for Humanity.
Special thanks to all the families that donated the food, including a large bag of apples, the loaves of bread, lettuce, mayo, packages of ham and cheese, tangerines, pringles, drinks and water bottles and the $25 check. For dessert, there were plenty cheese cake bites and muffins baked by the Challenge girls that were able to join us in the morning.
Please give your self a spiritual pat on the back, as this was a wonderful work of mercy that filled the hearts of many brothers and sisters with gratitude, and gave our daughters a small taste of the happiness brought forth from charity in action.
Thank you!
