I am overwhelmed: by the generosity of BFA high school students who collected food for the food shelf; by Geoff Schukei who organized it all;by the anonymous people who left food, brought turkeys and shared their blessings with the food shelf; by the visitors to the BFA Craft Fair who donated money and brought food for the food shelf; by the many young people who cheerfully helped me and the other vendors carry their crafts in and out of the gym; to the two young people who ran our PHPG table when I couldn't be there and then stayed extra time; to the folks of the United Church who donated food; to those who donated and to Steeple Market for creating and collecting bags of food; to those who attend the Ecumenical Thanksgiving Service and donate food, and to the community at large for their generosity in helping their neighbors.
To that man who spoke to us at our table at the Fair on Saturday and observed that 'we can't help our own why should be help others,' I am sorry, but you missed the boat!
My cup runneth over. May the Lord bless you and keep you.
