I want to say thank you to those I mentioned as well as a BIG THANK YOU TO Reverend Suzy because without all of you I don't know where I'd be today.

I took my daughter with me and she loved helping as much as I did. We both plan to volunteer and be there as much as possible. Thank you to St. Paul's and all the staff for doing this to help the community, thank you for serving God in such a loving and meaningful way. Also, the last name of one of the staff is misspelled, his name is Mike Clevenger. And he is doing an amazing job stepping into a leadership role and dealing with guests and volunteer staff professionally, courteously and lovingly This is the first time I’ve been able to volunteer at the warming center.
