LINEN DRIVE
Because of your generosity, we were able to serve our city in very meaningful ways through the linen drive. We served 10 families, 14 adults and 25 children who were victims from the deadly Woodlands Apartment fire January 15. Another fire on Bakewell Street occurred on January 27th. We served 3 adults and 4 children, all of which were without insurance. Another person from AA recently was a victim of a fire, also received linens.
The remaining linens all went to our ministry partner, Mosaic Ministries. David Kaiser of Mosaic Ministries writes, "Today, our friends at First Presbyterian made a number of people in South Toledo cry. The massive pile of blankets, towels, and pillows you delivered were immediately redistributed to our guests, special delivery. One couple who have nothing were so overwhelmed they wept openly in gratitude. Thanks for continually sharing with our friends at Mosaic Ministries."
