What's Happening?

How Can You Encourage An Under-Resourced, Single Mom?

If you do not have a car, then how do you schedule Dr.'s appointments for your kids, counseling appointments to deal with your clinical depression, parent-teacher conferences, etc.?  How do you cook healthy food for your children by purchasing only what you can carry from your walk to the corner convenience market?  What if you are offered a job...finally... but cannot take it due to a bus schedule that does not match up with the work schedule?

You can bring hope to these moms by simply committing  to drive on a regular basis, or on an "on-call" basis.  How hard is it to run a mom to the grocery store?  Yet, God can use you in this way to bring HOPE to a family.

Are you called to serve Him by offering to drive?
