Walnut Ridge Baptist Church Youth Group

We were blessed in early July to have a group of 12 high school students and three adults from Walnut Ridge Baptist Church in Mansfield Texas come to serve at our pantry as part of their mission trip.  For two mornings they worked on everything from inside cleaning and organizing, outside yard work, garden weeding and exterior painting.  I have never seen a group work so hard and with such a cheerful heart.  It was such a pleasure to serve with them and to see the light of Jesus in each of them.

Billy

This is a bit unusual for the highlight of a client, but her story is so inspirational that I felt it needed to be shared.  Last August a cut on Katherine's foot was exposed to a flesh eating bacteria which caused her to have her leg amputated.  Through the whole process she has praised God and accepted His plan for her.  In early September she was fitted with a special prosthetic which allowed her to walk again.  Her survival was a miracle and the smile that you see in this picture shows the spirit that this lady possesses.
