A few weeks ago I, Jacqui, sent out an emergency appeal for assistance for one of our Wednesday members, Esnart. The response was overwhelming. I cannot tell you how much it meant to all of us who visited her last Wednesday; we felt like a group of Guardian Angels thanks to all of you. The photos tell the story though I will give a brief description to explain more comprehensively.

As we unloaded all of your kind donations Esnart's eyes just filled with tears until she started crying. It was such a good feeling doing what we have been called to do - on that day we collectively improved the lives of a family of God's most needy. She now has more than enough blankets and bedding for the family, lots of food to tide her over, a gel stove, toys for the children, clothes for them all and some money. We all know that it will not last forever but I will work closely with Queenie to see how we can make an impact in the longer term. For now, Esnart's family is warmer, better fed, and a little happier with life thanks to you all.
