January 2017

 

Wow! Another year has past.

I am sure it is the hope of all of us, that we are able to

help some of our homeless neighbors by preventing hypothermia.

Every January we start from sleeping bag number one.

The weather, wear and tear, and just struggling in the cold, a sleeping bag can make a difference of life or death.

People are desperate to stay alive.

Margaret can relate. She was surveying on a cold winter day in the city,

When an ambulance arrived to remove a dead body right around the corner from her.

She had a sleeping bag in her van ready to give to someone, but she didn’t know the man was there.

He had been trying to keep warm by lying next to a man who had a sleeping bag.

Such a sad struggle.

If You, Your Church, school or organization can help, please do. It is important.

 

We ask all groups to help others start another.

You might be saving a life this winter.

Please Pass it on.
