I am speechless...well almost



I have just received one of the greatest blessings EVER!  A beautiful young lady arrived at our condo with a smile and a card, and simply said that the card would explain.  I'm sure I looked very surprised....hopefully, not rude!  I am still in shock and in awe of this group of women (I had never heard of you!), and can't wait to get involved.  My 97-year-old dad, when learning of my cancer diagnosis, simply stated that he couldn't wait to see how God intended to use me during and after my journey.  Now I know!

Thank you so much for your prayers, your encouraging words and your fabulous gift.  You have certainly inspired me to pass it on to others.

Blessings to each of you always!

Thank You!



It has been a few month since a phone call followed by 2 kind women showing up at my door.  The gift of cash came at such a crucial time and was completely suprising.  It was a big lift in my spirit at that time.  I was pretty humbled by the random act of love.  Whoever it was.. thanks.  Things like that help us along in life and I think of it often at how loved I felt at the time.  What a great group of women!!..

Blessed Beyond Measure

Dear Angels in Disguise,

Needless to say  I was speechless when you came to today, and I fear, I failed to show how much I appreciated your overwhelming kindness. You are what giving is truly all about.

Someday, I hope I can be a part of a group like you.

The verse on the card  ( Proverbs 10:22  " God's blessing makes life rich.") says it all.

I have a beautiful, healthy family, wonderful friends, and a job that I love. The Lord has

blessed me beyond measure.

Hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. You have certainly made my Christmas.

Thanks and love to each of you beautiful women,

A very big surprise!

Today I was surprised when 3 very nice women came to my work with a gift and card. 

 

Thanking all of them, not sure what this was about, I went back to my office.  I, hesitantly, opened the card and there was such a generous amount of money in it!!!!  The gift, several very nice items, was so thoughtful!!

 

This was not only a very big surprise, but so thoughtful.  I have no idea how these kind women knew of me, but they have been a true blessing!!

 

I am moving out of an apartment that I can no longer afford. And with the holidays coming, I have simply had to lift my worries to God, and he keeps providing for me, and helping me find answers.

 

Thank you, 3 wonderful women, and God Bless!!

Dear Ladies,

You are not ordinary to me.  My name is Sally and I don't know how you got my name but I am so grateful for the gift of my little boy's photography session.  Wiff Harmer was just wonderful and the pictures are gorgeous! My husband and I want to thank you so much for doing that for us.    May the Lord bless you for you kindness to many like me.

Much love,
Sally 

I saw her cry because she felt Hope...

Dear 12 Ordinary Women,

I think you should change the name of your group. What you all do is extraordinary!

 

I cannot tell you what a difference you made in my family's life today. For the past five months it seems like we have only received bad news. Today we found out that my dad would be released to come home on Friday because the insurance will no longer cover his stay in rehab. My mom spent the morning crying because there is so much left to do and medical equipment left to buy for the house to be ready. She came back into the hospital room after receiving the gift with tears in her eyes. She said, "a woman just gave me a card and by the time I opened it and saw the money, she was gone." She said that she ran down the hall to the elevators and couldn't find her anywhere. She thought maybe the woman was an angel :) My mom sat down, put her face in her hands and cried. I've watched her cry a lot lately because she's scared, overwhelmed, heartbroken, etc.  For the first time in months I saw her cry because she felt hope and encouragement. That part was a wonderful gift for me. I also saw her feel relief because something GOOD finally happened. She looked up the website and still can't believe that strangers could be so generous and loving. The money will be a huge help in preparing the house for my dad to come home. More than the money thank you for giving me and my mom hope that things will be ok and showing us that we are not alone. I will never forget this day.

 

Love to everyone of you,

M

So many thanks for their friends and want to get involved...

Seldom does a day go by that someone, somewhere doesn’t email us to let us know how we have touched the life of someone they care deeply about. The gift of Hope travels so much farther then we ever could have imagined. Below are just a sample of what has come in this past few days....

I would like to know how to get involved with what you do or how to start my own group? Your group blessed someone very dear to me today and words can not express my gratitude.  K

I would like more information about your group.  I very recently learned about it from someone who experienced the loss of a family member and your group assisted her.  DP

My friend received a basket from you that touched her heart so much.  I would love to know more how I could get involved in the wonderful group. SB

I haven't been able to let go of the idea of 12 ordinary women.  Please send me some info on how to start one, k?  And thank you for your heart to serve and bless others.  God is using you in so many ways.  JS

I received information on your group this past week and reviewed your website. I would love to get information on either forming a group or joining a local group. What an amazing thing you are all doing. EC
