Flower Mound, TX - Thank You.
Thank you so much for my gift! It was so nice to get a gift like that. I did not expect it at all. Thank you! I hope that I could know who sent it my way, it made my day and help me pay bills I couldn't have paid without it!!! Thank you soo much!!!
My Heart is Overflowing with Gratitude
With tearfilled eyes, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the beautiful, heaven sent gift. Words can not express my gratitude for the angel, card and generous gift I just received. I certainly don't deserve it and my heart is overflowing with gratitude and thankfulness. I am humbled and blessed to think that a group of anonymous, none of which are just "ordinary," women loves me enough to do such an incredibly selfless and thoughtful act. I wish I could personally thank and hug each of you for your love, generosity and prayers for me, and my husband, Jim. Your thoughtfulness and prayers must be due to the health struggles he has faced for so many years and the news we just received regarding his health. Although faith assures us that God is with us always, even in the darkest of valleys, and that he holds our future, and knows what is best for all of us, the worry and uncertainty can still be a lonely place, at times. Jim and I are both richly blessed and grateful for our Christian family and friends, who have always loved us, even me, when I'm not very lovable, and stood by us through all the bright and dark times in our lifes, and we dearly love and cherish all of them. They are bright, shining examples of God's love, as are all of you, and, I'm not mentioning names, but I bet some of you are part of this Christian group of 12 Ordinary Women.
Thank you again for your prayers, love, support and this incredible gift. I was listening to Dr. Charles Stanley, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Atlanta, this morning, and he was talking about experiencing God's love during one of his struggles, and he discussed the time he felt as if he had been literally hugged by God, that he could feel God's loving arms around him, and that he's never forgotten the experience. He went on to explain that we all know God loves us, but to feel the strong presence of God's warm embrace is truly special. I feel God's embrace now, and felt it when I received your heartfelt gift today, and I will never forget that feeling and this blessing!
May the Lord richly bless each of you, and your loved ones, for your prayers, goodness, kindness and generosity. Please call on me if I can ever help any of you or your loved ones. One day, I would like to join your group, or similar group, and bless others, as you've blessed me.
Thanks again,
B Y

Abundantly blessed in Ocoee, FL
Ahhh! I don't even know what to say. I am ABUNDANTLY blessed, with amazing friends & family, an amazing life, and now an AMAZING surprise blessing, like the one you gave, in a card at work (in Winter Garden/Ocoee FL). When I opened it, I had my first serious HOT FLASH! I sat stunned for the rest of the day; stunned, humbled, BLESSED, loved, joyous, and totally emotional! Thank you so sincerely for thinking of me, for praying for me and for trusting me to be wise with such a blessing.
A Minnetonka, MN thank you
I received a call from Jill saying she had a gift bag to deliver. As it turns out, she was a courier, but not in the way I expected. With a smile and a few words, she handed a large gift bag to me, said goodbye and went on her way.
The bag was filled to the brim with snacks and sweets, gift card for a massage and a beautiful note sitting next to not a few 20 dollar bills.
The kindness extended to me in Jesus name still brings a smile to my face. The gifts have enabled us to have a lovely Christmas.
I think I will always marvel at the timing of this gesture, and know that Jesus is alive and well and living in the hearts of 12 ordinary women. My sincere gratitude goes to all of you. May God bless you for your efforts.

What a blessing in Southaven, MS
As I came back to work after being on my lunch break someone told me a lady had dropped off a package for me. In it was a wonderful devotional book, a really cute picture frame and an envelope filled with a wonderful, wonderful blessing!!! God is so GOOD! J He always provides for His children! Working 2 jobs and struggling to make it from paycheck to paycheck and knowing there is not enough time in the day for me to work a 3rd job I’ve had to tell my children we didn’t have the money for a lot of things. My daughter even told me several weeks ago to not worry about buying her anything for Christmas and if I did want to buy something for her she would rather us take the money that I would spend on her use it to buy gifts for other people. And my son who has surrendered to preach has paid his own way through bible college and has never once made me feel bad because I haven’t had the money to help him. God knows our hearts and I am so THANKFUL for this wonderful surprise! Thank you doesn’t seem enough! I am truly grateful! May God Bless you and your family! I would like to start or join a group also to be able to help others like me!

Friday the 13th Thank You
I was surprised this Friday evening, December 13, 2013, by two lovely women who stood on my porch and knew my name and said they cared about me and my family. They brought dinner, a bouquet of flowers, a card and generous gift card, and a Devotional book:-). My husband and four boys were so very excited as was I. I am truly thankful and grateful for this unexpected blessing and would love to become part of this group to bless others as I have been:-) This past year has been difficult with facing layoffs, a foreclosure, and searching for jobs while trying to keep going for our four boys so thank you for reminding me of the true spirit of this season:-) Merry Christmas to the 12 Ordinary Women and everyone else too:-)
You have enriched my life...
What an awesome surprise I found when I went to lock my storm door on Saturday night!!! I found this bag filled with a beautiful candle (I love candles -- they "mask" the fact that my house needs to be cleaned!), 2 sweet cards, & a most generous monetary gift! Wow! Just another example of God's servants being His earthly angels & the "hands & feet of Jesus". I don't know who you are but you will never know how appreciative I am of your prayers & gifts. In fact, I'm going to frame your sweet message & the history behind this awesome organization. (By the way, I'd love to be a member or start another one. I have lots of friends who have the same desire.) I can never repay the people that God has used in my life since October 7th, but I do intend to pass on His love to others. May each of you have a wonderful Christmas & please know how much you have enriched my life. I love you, K O
