From Helmut Linne von Berg
Caroline County Social Services identified five needy households in the two Port Royal trailer parks for us. Three persons in one, two individuals in another and three single person households. On Tuesday, 20 November, ECM men took the following items to each of the households:
- Oven browned turkey breast, (the three person household also received a package of smoked ham)
- Mashed potatoes,
- Turkey gravy,
- Whole berry cranberry sauce,
- Green beans,
- Sweet corn,
- Mixed veggies,
- Dinner rolls,
- Pumpkin/sweet potato pies,
- Whipped cream,
- Smart Balance buttery spread,
- Apple sauce,
- A gallon apple cider for each household
Without a doubt, most of the recipients were quite needy and very much appreciated our gifts.
We identified ourselves as members of St. Peter’s Church as well as doing this in response to the Caroline County Social Services Thanksgiving program.
Many thanks to the ECM and the contributions from our congregation at large. Without your generosity we would not be able to carry on the Lord’s work as He would want us to do.
