During 2005, the ministry was involved in several mission trips to the hurricane ravaged Gulf Coast area, taking needed supplies to the victims in Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana.
This year, I have been to the Port Charlotte and Fort Myers, Florida areas.
We need to keep these areas in our prayers, the people, and those who are left without homes, especially.
The recovery process will take a length of time, and they will be continually in need.
Our thoughts, our hearts, and our prayers should be with them.
I usually announce my mission trips in the daily devotionals. I appreciate all the help that I have been getting, each time I made the journeys. Each time I go, I need help in gathering supplies. God has blessed me with provision from helpers.
This year, I am beginning a group named Sonshine Beamers, and we will be sending out greetings to shut ins and nursing home patients, who are alone, no family to speak of.
If you wish to join us, let me know. If you wish to submit a recipient, please let me know, as well.
Most everyone knows of somebody who is alone and in need of cheering up occasionally.
Hi, I have something to announce by the end of this month, which will be of great interest to many of you. There will be a new and exciting opportunity for you to help me in 2004, to reach out to others. Keep reading the Morning Glorythoughts. Sandra Sandra 7:38 PM

Hi, I am sending shipments to soldiers serving in Iraq. With my selling Avon, am able to get lip balm, etc. while on sale.
Avon is also selling a pin with yellow ribbon, and red, white and blue. 75% of the sales are going to further the help of soldiers in Iraq, as well. Some of my customers have purchased for their employees. They are $4.00 each.
If you wish to help me send supplies, please let me know. If you have the name of a soldier who has little or no mail, please let me know. Thanks. Sandra 12:32 PM

As all know, the troops overseas are in need of daily supplies, hygiene articles, etc.
I wish to put together shoeboxes of supplies for them. If you would like to help me do this, please let me know.
Any donation toward this effort will be appreciated. I plan to send out shipments once a month.
Thanks, Sandra

Hi Folks:
Winter seems to be passing, as storms always do. From season to season, we go and we grow. Speaking of growing! I am adding a line of gifts to my writing efforts, and the Mother's poem will be featured on a wall hanging, which will be advertised in the April/May issue of Country Sampler magazine. If you can, grab a copy, and check out my ad. Show it to friends. Will keep you posted as time allows. Blessings to all, Sandra Sandra 5:54 PM
