Operation Handmade Blessings 2016-2018

I always get so excited during this time of the year because one I love Christmas and I love giving back to my community.  Here are our years with this ministry and the people I have been able to involve. This year 2018 we gave away over 560 items to the elderly in the nursing home and I can't be more excited about that. I am so grateful for my job where I had the most donations this year and my family for always supporting my mission. This is really a Blessing. Here are photos from our last two years! We at this point have been in operation for 8 years.

2019 we are looking to not only continue to help with the Nursing home but also give to children that are spending their holiday in the children's hospital. Looking to bless the children with Artist Card Kits to make their own art cards, beaded bracelets, and, handmade drawstring bags. So excited to see what God will do next!  Until 2019...

Operation Handmade Blessings 2016 Underway...

I am excited as we are back in action again for the 5th year of Blessing those in the Nursing Home during the Holiday season.  We are set to go out December 17th 2016.  We would love for you to help. I would recommend looking at all the pictures from the previous years and see what we do.  Last years event was our largest.  We had over 20 volunteers, and each residence got at least 6 items each as well got to visit the donation table that had clothes, jewelry etc.  It was an amazing time and the residence surely felt the love in the air.  I am so blessed to be able to do this and to do what Christ has called me to do which is take care of the Elderly, the sick, the widows, the homeless.  I find no greater joy!  We have tabs that tell you about what items are accepted what we do, how to sponsor, and how to donate.  Let me know if you have any questions.

Operation Handmade Blessings Christmas Outreach December 2015!

Good Morning, I wanted to share some photos from our outreach.  I am so blessed that God has given me a passion for his people. The widows, elderly, and the sick. I enjoyed every minute of Operation Handmade Blessings Event today. So thankful for all volunteers that were amazing at serving today. The residences were overjoyed with our service to them today. We all made it possible today. All who donate who could not make it as well you are also made this happen.  Thanks for everyone's support.  This Ministry has been a blessing to me and I can say enough how lucky I am to have a heart to serve people.  With the passing of my mom a few months ago, I almost did not do this but I know who lives on the inside of me and that He makes all things possible!
