Surely I am not alone in asking, “Whose birthday are we celebrating?” Why is He the only one not getting gifts? He gives us gifts if we want them and ask, even when it’s not our birthday. I would really appreciate hearing from others who have had thoughts like these, and would like to hear how they are handling it. And, it seems that in the light of these tough times, we need to be helping folks with food, shelter and clothing, not just wants that we will have to build bigger barns in which to store the loot we cannot afford. I am not a grinch at all, and these thoughts and questions have been building for a long time. I finally just had to ask them. I sincerely want to know.

I think we ought to remember that in addition to OFFERING assistance this Christmas, the Salvation Army could use some assistance of its own.

Drop folding money if you can spare it, or change into a kettle at whatever location you might encounter one. Your donation will be used wisely and visibly.

When the bell is heard to ring, step up and answer the call.

I was pleased to read about this program this AM being offered to the northend residents who could use a helping hand with Christmas gifts. In the past, if you need help like this, the northend residents would have to drive to Pensacola or just do without.

I’m pretty certain not many like asking for help like this, but when life has thrown you a curve ball and it’s all you can do to just keep a roof over your head and food in your childrens stomach’s, help like this is a big blessing and appreciated by many.

Thank you Salvation Army for helping the northend residents by offering this program and to William for letting everyone know the who, what & where.
