It's a Dog gone World- Morning Out with Care-A-Van

By Robin Walters

Meet Cuddles. Cuddles was out in the midsts of the hub of activity this past Saturday morning for Care-A-Van grocery distribution.

We heard of many dog gone it moments- dog gone it I lost my job, dog gone it I was beaten by my husband, dog gone I need to find an affordable apartment for my family, dog gone it I lost my home to a fire a few months back and the dog gone moments kept rolling for the 2 hours Care-A-Van Ministries was on State street for grocery distribution.

It was a very  busy morning as there were 51 families with 148 family members that arrived for groceries, clothing and prayer.

There were many new families that arrived for help. The stories of the events that are happening in their lives makes one heart ache.

There are moments when out in the midst of it all, and the line keeps growing and the needs are shared, one's spirit can get weak. However,  there is hope and there is peace. The peace and hope comes from knowing that the Lord will continue to provide.

A special thanks to all of you for your encouragement, your support and for your willingness to go forth and make a difference in those "dog gone" moments for those living right here in Batavia.
