Helping the Sick


As most of you probably know, Bro. Eric L fell a few weeks ago and broke both bones in his lower leg. After 2 surgeries and about two weeks in the hospital, he is scheduled to be released on Thursday. Mrs. Denise C is now organizing meals for our sick or those who have lost a loved one. We usually try to provide meals for a week to ten days in these times of need; however, Bro. Eric is going to need meals for about two weeks.

Ms. Denise has a spreadsheet of the days that need to be filled for meals for Bro. Eric. She also has such information as food allergies and dislikes as well as his address.

One of the blessings and privileges of being part of a local church is having a second family to share in your joys as well as your burdens. Bro. Eric has certainly been through his share of burdens recently and his blindness and two flights of stairs to his kitchen will only add to his difficulties. It would be a great encouragement to him, his children, and Annette from Visitnet to have this small kindness shown to him. If you would like to help out with the meals but did not get your name on the list at church Wednesday night, please send me an e-mail and I will provide Mrs. Campbell's phone number to you.

If you have an opportunity to make a full pan of something he could possibly freeze in sections to pull out at a later time, that would be a wonderful blessing, as well.

Thank you for being the most wonderful group of ladies ever! You are an encouragement to me.
