Another Success Story in Ft. Walton

Friday May 30, 2008, Fort Walton Beach

When I arrived in September 2007 we served food to less than 1000 individuals. In fact we served 1,191 from October to December, 2,198 from January to March and in May we served 3,128 individuals just food! You can see how our numbers are increasing.

Under a miracle story- a patient walked in 2 weeks ago asking us for $5,000 for emergency gallbladder surgery. She was Caucasian and in her 40’s and the surgery center needed this payment up front. After a few calls, a surgeon agreed to make all the arrangements pro bono! God is good.

Have a good weekend. I love my work!
