OVERWHELMED BY THE HEARTS, LOVE AND GENEROSITY OF MANY at our recent auction on October 26

So WOW!!  God continues to bless this ministry and the children who will know God's love through your love and generosity.

Over $14,000 raised to help orphans, children in foster care, single parent families, and many more children who need to know that someone cares about them!  When God's people come together and serve those in need we can be sure miracles will happen!

Everyone who baked, made food, crafted an item, built an item, purchased an item, donate in anyway, came out for the dinner, bid on items, prayed for the auction event; whatever part and role you participated in is a part that we could not have done without.

"The King will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.'  Matthew 25:40

We now have the BIG and WONDERFUL task and privilege of find ways to spend these funds to help a lot of extraordinary kids!

HHH Task Force would like to extend a big THANK YOU from our hearts to yours!
