Heart-to-Heart
Heart-to-Heart is a Gift Bag Project. Intended
to build relationships, especially with nursing home residents, our goal is
to reach out in compassion to those who may not have visitors and to simply
let people know that someone cares about them. The brightly colored bags, in
the photograph below, are filled with personal specialty items to encourage
interaction between volunteers and residents. Feedback has been very positive
from both the facilities and the volunteers. Residents are encouraged by this
gesture of genuine care. Heart-to-Heart was designed to touch hearts and offer
encouragement as an example of God's special care for each of us. Everyone who
participates--residents, facility personnel, donors, assembly and delivery volunteers.
Even the vendors we purchase many of the contents from sense the blessings these
bags bring.
If you would be interested in becoming involved in any aspect of this project,
(personally, prayerfully or financially ), to make a real difference in people's
lives, please CONTACT us.
It seems that whenever and wherever physical needs are compounded, spiritual
needs are multiplied. I have come to realize that I cannot begin to fathom the needs
before me, let alone meet them. I implore you to trust the Lord of the harvest with
me to "raise up laborers for His harvest field." (Luke 10:2)
