I want to take this opportunity to thank Kris Seale and the Board of Directors of FDLIC for allowing me to take some time off this past week to serve others. I, again, volunteered to help out at the Pregnancy Resource Center (PACN) here in Conroe. When I first asked Teri McGiffort, the Administrator, if she could use my help, her first response was “Always!”. I found out later that 85% of the people that help out there are volunteers. What a blessing to be able to be a part of this ministry! I spent the most of my time there working in the store, next door to the center. My job was to go through the donations, mark the items and price them for the families who come through there. The people who work there are amazing! Listening to their stories was a blessing. One of the girls whom I was working with told me that her mother, who ran the store, had had an abortion when she was a young girl. She expressed some grief for the fact that she could have had a sister. She, herself, had even considered to have one! But, by the grace of God, she didn’t. This was the reason that she was there helping out. She wanted to maybe make a difference in another young girls life and, hopefully, share there is hope!
My plans are to continue to volunteer in this organization. I truly have a heart for these young girls and their unborn babies. I know God is allowing me the opportunity to serve in some capacity during these times when I am available.
Thank you again for the opportunity and time that was spent helping others!
