Sorry for the extremely late post, but this particular SOG opportunity was perfect. We live in a rural area, so we picked our closest neighbor, Ben. Ben has had a string of very bad luck over the past few months. Mike had gotten him a temporary job but was laid off. He lives is a small single wide on an acre tract of land off the main highway out here in Rockingham County. He has not been able to get a job in 6 months and has to run an extension cord from his mom's trailer next door to have electricity. His well has gone bad and he has no running water. Since we don't much about digging wells but we do know about the Living Water, we figured the best thing we could do is provide him food. So our offering was a gift certificate that allowed him to purchase whatever he needed. He was so touched and we shared with him the reason behind our offering. This was truly a blessing for all of us, but particularly for Ben because he knows now that people truly care about him.

Thanks to everyone that so generously donated items to make this Serving Our Soldiers a great success. We were blessed with the opportunity to learn more about one of the Marines by a visit with his stepmom who brought photos to share. It's awesome when you can give back - especially reaching out so far in the distance. We're looking forward to the next opportunity to reach out from "home".
