RESULTS FOR SAL WARM WINTER PROJECT~ WE LOVE GIVING BACK!!!
We exceeded our goal of 200 blankets, coats, hats, gloves, scarves
etc. to give the homeless a warm winter this holiday season. Not only that but we were able to minister to people who shared
their stories of being clean and sober.
We heard nonstop stories of people living drug and alcohol free lives because of events like today. Sometimes, all people want and need is a helping hand. And because of supporters like you with a servants heart.........SAL was able to provide exactly that for hundreds of people!!!
*Kyllan Tower, who came to volunteer literally took the coat off his back and gave it away when we got low, and only three minutes later a man walked up and that coat was a perfect fit. *Anthony Tibbs blessed us in so many ways, out the goodness of his heart he went and bought 6 bags of coats when he saw we were low on jackets. *Danielle Rhomes an amazing friend and sister who put in more hours then some do in a 8 hour shift at work, she was the first one there and the last one to leave. Thank you Danielle for all of your support, love and kindness.
Thank you to EVERYONE who contributed to make our vision a reality for us and those in need this holiday season. We love you and appreciate you, again THANK YOU.
At the end of the day we split the remaining items up for the evening homeless drive by run and the other half we took by the Seattle Union Gospel Mission: Hope Place. Our hearts are still full from such a great day. Project WARM WINTER was incredible & a HUGE success. Lots of laughs, tears and wonderful stories to tell for years and years to come.

GOOD NEWS
The FDA has slated December 9th for ruling on whether to approve Benlysta, the first drug treatment for lupus in over 50 years.
"The committee's 13 to 2 vote in favor of Benlysta bodes well for the
first treatment designed for systemic lupus in more than 50 years as it
goes to federal regulators for final consideration. The FDA does not
have to follow the panel's recommendation, but often does. The agency is
slated to rule by Dec. 9"

CLEANING HOUSE FOR 2010
Last week I threw out worrying, it was getting old and in the way.
It kept me from being me; I couldn't do things God's way.
I threw out a book on MY PAST
(Didn't have time to read it anyway)
Replace it with NEW GOALS, started reading it today.
I threw out HATE and bad memories
(Remeber how I treasured them so)?
Got me a NEW PHILOSOPHY too, threw out the one from long ago.
Brought in some new books too, called I CAN, I WILL, and I MUST.
Threw out I MIGHT, I think ans I ought
WOW, you should've seen the dust
I ran accross and OLDER FRIEND, I hadn't talked to in a while.
His name is GOD the Father, and I really like His style
He helped me to do some cleaning and added some things HIMSELF.
Like PRAYER, HOPE, FAITH ans LOVE
Yes... I placed them right on the shelf.
I picked up this special thing and placed it at the front door.
I FOUND IT- it's called PEACE. Nothing gets me down anymore.
yes, I've got my house looking nice
Looks good around this place
