| Erica-14 Year Old Volunteer |
Members of Heather's family will be joined by old friends and new.
These opportunities have not only helped the homeless, the abused, and many children from abusive homes, it has helped our family as well. Ms. Erica,
(the 14 year-old daughter of Heather's cousin) will be leading the way and setting an example for other young people to get involved in making a difference. Erica joined us on our last trip and worked as hard as all of the grown men who were there. She is an inspiration to her classmates, teachers, and her family. Not many 14-year-old young ladies would choose to do this kind of work instead of going to the mall on a Saturday. She is proof that you can never be too young to be a leader. We hope that more people will join us as the weeks and months and years pass, as we continue to work toward a more comfortable life for others.
Our Phase 2 project will be a much needed labor of love for the women and children of the 7 Bridges shelter, we will share more news on that soon. So, stay tuned here on our blog, join us to work on our project, or make a donation to the cause. We will be putting up a "wish list" for our Phase 2 project as soon as the plans are set. Never underestimate the power of spreading the word. we mentioned to a friend last week that we were looking for a particular item to help us get started, he had no idea where to find this item. But, he posted it on his Facebook, and we had it the very next day! Thanks to John Kearney for doing that AND for delivering it to us during his busy day!
Get your kids involved. You will be surprised and proud of what they are capable of, I know I am very proud of my little girl. :)
