Giving the gift of hope
I went into my classroom this morning after a meeting and I found this AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL bouquet of flowers.
Thank you for thinking of me and giving me a wonderful smile today!
The gift card was very thoughtful too. You have deeply blessed me.
Have a wonderful day!

My husband was laid off work 2 weeks ago and it's been a bit stressful with a large family and bills. On Saturday while he was home with our boys he had a visit from 2 nice ladies whom he has never met before. They left a delicious meal and a monetary gift that will be so helpful! For us it was God saying “Don't worry. I'm going to take care of you.” What a faith building experience for us, and for our kids to see how God works through the kindness of others. We will never forget what you have done for us and your obedience to the Lord. We are forever thankful:) God bless you

I have never heard of your group until today,when a cute young lady showed up at the dialysis clinic where I work as a nurse and handed me an envelope with my name upon it. Inside this envelope was a handwritten note from someone letting me know that a group of ladies were praying for me and my husband along with a monetary blessing. You see, my husband has just been told that if he chooses to forgo chemo (which he has been for doing for 6 years along with way too many surgeries) that he has approximately 4-6 months to live. This gift has made me realize that there are so many good women out there and that we do need to step up and help each other more. I do not know who you are, but, I love you and just know that I intend to try to do my part to help others. I will never forget this act of kindness, may God Bless You All!
Today, I received an act of kindness, love and support from a group of strangers calling themselves 12 “Ordinary” Women. To these women, I say Thank You for touching my heart, lifting my spirits and reminding me that through God all things are possible. During this challenging time in my life and in the life of my family, we have seen an outpouring of love, compassion and support from others. God is alive and well on Earth and he places people in our lives when we are right on the brink of falling short of his grace. This was one of those days for me; and I will never forget this day, when God placed 12 “Extraordinary” Women in my path to strengthen my faith; and touch my life forever. Thank you.
You are in my prayers.

My mother passed away 2 weeks ago after a long illness. She was my best friend and I miss her. Last week I received a beautiful orchard with a lovely, touching note. It filled my heart with joy because it was my Mom's favorite flower. Thank you so much to your organization, I am truly touched by your love and generosity. You are all special angels. I will cherish the moment forever.
Today, I received an act of kindness, love and support from complete strangers, calling themselves 12 ”Ordinary” Women in Dallas. To these women, I say Thank You for reminding me that all things are possible through God. Your gift of hope and encouragement did indeed bring sunshine into my life; and at a time when I needed it most. I want you to know that my sister, Dana, is like you – she is selfless, tirelessly works helping others and loves our Lord as evidenced by her life of service. Watching her struggle with illness has often times made me question God’s will. Each and every time that I have questioned, God has placed extraordinary people in my path to remind me of his love and to keep me ever focused on eternity. Although, I do not know you, I love you; and I will remember this day when 12 “Extraordinary” Women touched my life forever.
You are in my prayers,
Lisa
I do not know how or why you got my name or where I work but what a gifting of warmth you brought to me. The last few years have been dark and scary for someone who is usually the "strong one" and the last few months have felt like I was in a cave. I feel like I am just starting my path back into the light building strength and the flowers received have bewildered me and excited me.
Thank you, whoever you are. Mary
I can't express the gratitude I feel for the gift envelope I received from you in my mail box this week. My mother passed away a few weeks ago suddenly (though not surprisingly). As life settles into a routine again, it can be difficult to see things go on as usual while it feels anything but inside. To have my grief acknowledged with a lovely note and some very thoughtful gifts is beyond meaningful. I can't really find the words. Thank you so much.
Dear !2 Ordinary Women, Initially I wrote a quick note of thanks, but as my emotions have overwhelmed me increasingly today, I think I need to write an amendment. First of all, when the women came to my door I was perplexed, and at first thought they were someone else. I regret not inviting them in, not realizing that the that they were here to truly bless me. The necklace couldn't be more perfect. It is beautiful, and the symbolism of a tree is significant in my life, and my relationship with God. I felt seen by God as though He chose it specifically for me. And the money was as though someone poured sweet honey on my soul. I feel so unworthy of your generosity, but I thank you. It made me feel very loved and appreciated. Sometimes I feel like no one sees me. I know I'm not the center of it all, but just knowing that someone cared enough to bless my socks off, overwhelms me! I could go on and on, but I think you understand what I am saying. So with all my heart, thank you for demonstrating God's love to me. I feel very grateful and full. And I pray God blesses you too. Sincerely, Carol
