There aren't enough words to express my gratitude for the messenger (of 12 ordinary women) who stopped by the mission today with such a generous gift. It brought tears to my eyes and the eyes of our volunteers as I showed them the card and gift! With over 185 students in our MHFK family, the financial needs can be overwhelming at times. BUT GOD promises a blessing on those who consider the poor and less fortunate. Today, I thank God for using you as HIS conduit of hope and encouragement. He once again reminded us that "God's work, done in God's way, will never lack God's supply" (Hudson Taylor) . May God continue to increase your seed and enlarge your harvest as you keep giving the gift of hope...paraphrased 2 Corinthians 9:9-11
Thank you for the gift and kind words.
I just want to say thank you for the wonderful gift and words that were left at our house today for my daughter. It was extremely heartfelt and greatly appreciated.
Thank you whoever you are!
I want to thank you, whoever you are😉, from the bottom of my heart for the kindness, generosity and blessing that you sent me yesterday!! It brought tears to my eyes and warmth to my heart to know that there are people like you in his world and your generosity will stay with me forever!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! ❤
Thank you for the wonderful, personal gift.
A beautiful, generous gift of hope and caring was delivered to me from 12 Ordinary Woman. I don't know who the "ordinary" woman are, but I doubt you are far from ordinary. This gift came at a time when my chemo journey is getting long, hard and I need a lift. Thank you for the wonderful, personal gifts and the reminder of how loved I am. This means more than I can say.
With love,
Janice
2nd grade from Las Colinas Elementary School Thank You
My name is Starr Phillips and I am a first-year teacher at Las Colinas Elementary School to the most beautiful second graders. On Friday, February 17th, one of your 12 ordinary women dropped off a present for me and my students. This random act of kindness gave my coworkers and me chills. You ladies are amazing!!! To know that there are people in this world who are giving such thoughtful gifts and going out of their way to make another person's day is extraordinary.
I want to thank you for your gift and for thinking of me. I will always remember how this act made me feel; you ladies are heroes in my eyes.
Have the most blessed lives!
Starr
"Way Over Due Thank You"
First of all let me say that this is way over due and for that I'm regretful and embarrassed. I simply couldn't remember the name of the website or find the paper that was handed to me that day back last fall with the very generous monetary gift in an envelope.
I was truly in shock and awe when this gentleman walks in the door and hands me this envelope and walks away. It literally resembled something Jesus would do. It came at the perfect time and I stood there in tears and thinking ; Who knew my rent was late, AGAIN? Who knew - my car had been repossessed? Who knew - my electricity had been turned off recently, Who knew- That I had NO idea how I was going to dream of doing Christmas for my 2 boys. WHO KNEW ??? (the list goes on).....
I had never had that much cash in my hands even. My money has always been paycheck to paycheck, straight to the bank to pay bills and pray til' the next one came, for the most part. Sure I'd make choices and do for myself or go "out to dinner" instead of cooking at home every now and then, but NOT often in the past 2 years especially.
SO, where I'm merely a child of the King and saved by his grace and mercy... I found myself in AWE that there truly are people who care and love... and actually "GET IT"!
THANK YOU.,.. to whomever these ladies or men and women were. Thank you for loving me and my boys. Thank you for being there when no one else seemed to be.
From the bottom of my heart. THANK YOU!!!
It's my prayer God continues to bless this mission and the good folks that run it. I'd love one day to be able to "give back" like this. I'm still in NO position to be able to now, but some day. And I'm going to hang on to this paper, it's placed my bible now. May God bless each one of you...

I don't deserve this!!!
Thank you for all of the wonderful gifts you have given to me!! Wow! As I was opening each item I started to cry harder and harder...like, I don't deserve this! Who is this?! I opened your 12 Ordinary Women card and this just blew me away! People who rally together to give a person everything they could ever hope for all wrapped up in a basket!!
I just had my first of 4 complimentary house cleanings today...AND I AM A CLEANING LADY MYSELF! Retired of course due to cancer treatment but there is no way I could ever give this to myself...I have 2 kids and no money. I don't know how I ended up being blessed by your outpouring of love...but THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! God bless all of you!<3 Tanya

I thought you were here to visit with chamber members but you were here for me!
Today during a chamber ambassador visit I was approached by a woman with a bouquet of flowers and a card containing a gift card for wellness services though didn't have a chance to see what the gift was until after our open house was over. Needless to say it brought tears to my eyes and a sense of wonder to my heart. I love surprises and it's making me crazy that I don't know who to thank. I only know I want to forward the kindness given to me today and feel so honored to be thought of in this way....and to think I thought this gal was there to visit with other chamber members:-)
Doorstop gift.
Thank you all for the gift on our doorstep. God bless you for making our day a little brighter through your kindness. Alexis
