Founder’s Thanksgiving Message
Artwork Submitted by Fiely Matias
I drew this with the theme…b thankful for the simple things…In this pandemic I have learned to appreciate simple things…like just sitting and enjoying nature…We have forgotten that, that’s enough sometimes…or many times.

A Blessing
To: Mrs. Barbara
Once every now and again such a person like you comes along
One who is brighter than the brightest star, sweeter than the sweetest song…
God creates such special individuals like you and send them our way
For the purpose of enhancing our lives, for the purpose of brightening our day…
You come to us as an angel in human disguise
To help us mature as a person, to help us grow to be wise…
You are a gift from God, that’s plain to see
You have encouraged us all including me…
It’s obvious that you care
It’s evident by your thoughtful deeds and the kind words that you share…
Your friendship and kindness is as pure as a dove
I’m grateful for the way you have shown us God’s love…
You have been blessed from up above
Indeed, God has showered you with immeasurable love…
You are truly heaven sent
To be a Blessing to others, you were meant…
So shine on, continue to do what you do
And the Blessings you give will one-day return to shower you…
