Bloch Aid T-shirts & Blizzards for Bloch

6/17 -Well, unbeknownst to me, Dan talked about my battle with cancer and shared with the group gathered at the Saturday night service that we had these great t-shirts and that they could really bless me by buying all 70 of them up. You know what? They did except for some xl and a few lg sizes. I could hardly believe that I left with about $1500 to put towards medical costs. It was crazy. Wow.
Then, I got a check from school from the proceeds of the shirts sold to staff and various kids and that was another $500. It is such a relief to know that everything is going to be paid for even my cranial prosthesis (new wig)!
That same night at service, Debbi Geyer not only dropped off the money from the shirts at school, but also a box full of change and bills from one of the sixth grade academies at JGMS. Caroline Ruffridge just under took that endeavor and went with it. So, I counted everything out, put the tithe aside from it all, gave my tithe on Sunday and then made the deposit on Monday. The teller cracked up at all of my coins.

Then, I got a card yesterday from Jessica Nettimi, one of my adademy mates at JGMS and she somehow undertook operation blizzard. Again, unbeknownst to me, she somehow arranged to sell Dairy Queen Blizzards at school, with the help of several students in our academy. Enclosed in her card were some GREAT pictures of some students posing with the blizzards. As she said in her card, it is amazing what love they are capable of. It just brought tears to my eyes to read it and to see pictures of them. Also enclosed inteh card was a check from the proceeds, which I'm looking forward to depositing as well. I am so blesssed by everyone's generosity and overwhelmed by it at times. The sense of community is amazing!
