THANKFUL TO BE ABLE TO HELP

Today, we fed a hungry, homeless child. We squeezed that in between doing a few hundred homeless census surveys, 30 food stamp applications, and serving 400 hundred meals and handing out 175 family food boxes. Oh, there were lots of showers, phone calls, mail pickups and a hundred other things happening. But her story was the most important one. She's living in a car with her grandma. No luck today in finding her a better place to live. But Pierre was in for a visit. Pierre once was homeless living and in a car and we helped his Dad find work and get an apartment. Today he was in for his monthly visit to show us all how well he is doing. As for our new visitor, Dora fixed spaghetti and meatballs for lunch and put her into a big chair to eat.

The child scraped the bowl clean, with a grin from ear to ear. She'd only had water today to stop the ache of hunger, so lunch at 2:00 p.m. was gobbled down. After some cuddles with Pierre, she fell off to sleep. Maybe tomorrow, like Pierre, she'll get to find a home to go to. We'll sure be trying to find her one.
