New Volunteers A Wonderful Blessing
Spring flowers were beginning to peak in late March as seven new Missouri volunteers living less than an hour’s drive just west of St. Louis came to the branch site located there to deliver blankets and other necessities and prepare items for future use.
The addition of an extra seven pairs of dedicated hands made the work move smoothly. Those hands were joined by others who regularly give volunteer hours at the site.
So the Lord’s work was advanced joyfully and hopefully with … all glory to God!
