Warm a Heart, Lift a Spirt- Sack Lunch Making Event!

Have you keep that amazing feeling of Christmas love and giving burning and working inside of you throughout this year so far?  If you are looking for ways to do that I can help!!! ☺

On Saturday February 15th we will once again gather and created sack lunches filled with love,  “Warm a Heart, Lift a Spirit- Sack lunches made with love”.  We will need bread; lunch meat; cheese; peanut butter/jelly; plastic sandwich bags; lunch size bags of chips, pretzels; healthy lunch snacks:  granola bars, breakfast bars, cookies, brownies, snacks that will keep a stomach from grumbling; cases of water bottles; $5 gift cards to McDonalds, Burger King or Subway; and most importantly- positive notes of inspiration and kindness.   Last year I raised the goal to creating 500 lunches so that we could bless both homeless shelters in Joliet (Daybreak and Morningstar Mission) with lunches for their clients, and we blessed the Lemont Township Seniors who dine at the Community Center for the CNN lunches every day, and the seniors at the Mother Teresa Home- St. Francis Home.   Every one of the 500 lunches was gifted and enthusiastically received!

Join us as we commit to warming hearts and lifting spirits again this year!!!
