Excerpts and pictures from a letter from our Area Volunteer in Kentucky, Angie: " I work with 78 individuals with developmental disabilities. In February we began working together on a quilt for the homeless. The project took over 14 months to complete. After a lot of frustration for some and a lot of bandages for others, we finished. I just wished somehow I could express the joy and the love that these individuals put into this. We are already talking about something we can do for this year." |
