Similar to the angel trees that you see in shopping malls for children, senior citizens also need our help to make their holidays brighter. If you’re interested in “sponsoring” a senior citizen or if you simply want to donate money and I’ll be happy to be your personal shopper, please contact me at lynda.fleming23@gmail.com. All gifts need to be dropped off to me by December 5th.

    Ezekial 18:  Hear now, house of Israel: Is it my way that is unfair, or rather, are not your ways unfair?
    Philippians 2:  Do nothing out of selfishness or out of vainglory; rather, humbly regard others as more important than yourselves,  each looking out not for his own interests, but also for those of others.
    Matthew 21:  Jesus said to them, “Amen, I say to you, tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God before you.

     


    Don’t be afraid of the unknown. It is, in fact, the doorway to the future. “The illiterate of the 21st century,” Alvin Toffler said, “will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn.”
