OGT Maryland Warms Local Community with Coat Drive that Continues
Orphan Grain Train Maryland continues to collect winter coats for local organizations that share them with people in the community. Prior to Christmas, they gave out 1,036 coats. Dickey Hill Elementary School/ Middle School, Faith and Works Enterprise, St. Thomas Lutheran Church, Calvary Community Church, Bell Grove Elementary School, Catonsville Methodist Church and Lutheran Church of the Redeemer all received coats that were gathered from the OGT Maryland coat drive. Thank you, donors and volunteers for asking, gathering and sharing all of the many warm coats that went to be shared with others. As the cold winter winds and snow continue to be forecasted for the east coast, those coats that were given out will continue to bring warmth to many.
James 2:16
“And one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled, ” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that?”
