The other day my son asked, "Dad what happens when you don't give out lunches?" My husband replied that some days other groups take food in. My son says, "Yea... I thought God would provide for them."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8095068418828488278.post-79161914492425686202008-11-26T14:00:00.000-06:002008-11-26T14:00:00.000-06:00Inspiring story.

You're not just "That Family" who often winds up in the ER, or makes a big scene at the local diner. <BR/><BR/>You are "That Family" who gives to the least of these by feeding the hungry, raising money for causes, and caring for refugees.<BR/><BR/>Kristen, I truly see you as "That Mom, friend, wife, child of God," who sacrifices, loves, comforts, prays, and lives with joy.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for bringing such joy into the lives of many---you've truly blessed my heart.
