Grandmas Blankets Update

Image
Grandmas Blankets Update I've had to postpone the delivery of food to the Mission. We will, Lord willing, send the groceries out closer to Thanksgiving. Blankets are getting ready to be delivered to a grieving family who unexpectantly lost their 54 yr old Husband, Father.  He was the only provider.  Personal supplies and laundry supplies are also going to the family. A blanket is also being delivered to an elderly man who has been injured in a fall.  I think he's close to 90 years old. His wife is also close to 90 yrs. We also gave a crocheted tote and a small quilt  to a lady who had a stroke. Please pray. I'm working on 15 throws  for a nursing home near Hinckley. They will be sent out before Thanksgiving. Lord Willing Grandmas Blankets - Wadsworth Oh. An outreach of the Amazing Grace Baptist Church located in Hinckley Oh.
