What a summer! It has been a delightful summer here in Blount County. Weather has been hot, but we have had our share of rain as well. There have been lots of exciting days at the CFC as we reach out feeding the hungry.
It is a wonderful thing to have a summer birthday! It is even more wonderful to share that birthday with folks you don't know by giving them your gifts! This summer two children decided to share their birthdays with the CFC. Instead of gifts fro themselves, each child asked their party friends to bring food for the CFC. WOW! What a great idea!
Ellie Smith and Philip Tyler had birthday parties that collected food for others. That truly is a gift that passes on a good feeling while helping those in need. We were sorry that we could not secure pictures of these smiling birthday kids, but just the same they will be remembered by many as we reflect on their generosity and outward sharing.
We thank you Ellie and Philip..... thanks for a bright spot in our summer!
Thanks for reminding us that we are to share what we have. What are you celebrating today? How can you reach out to others in need! Have a party!
