You do NOT have to spend the day with us!
You can if you choose, but you don't have to.

Many local Fleece for the Flock members plan to attend.
But we will need a host of other blanket angels to complete the task.

Dear ones, God has blessed us all with so much more than any of us could ever deserve and we should all be reminded of what Jesus said,
" I tell you the truth, whatever we did not do for the least of these, you did not do for me"
"If you are generous with the hungry
and start giving yourselves to the down-and-out,
Your lives will begin to glow in the darkness,
your shadowed lives will be bathed in sunlight.
I will always show you where to go.
I'll give you a full life in the emptiest of places—
firm muscles, strong bones.
You'll be like a well-watered garden,
a gurgling spring that never runs dry.
You'll use the old rubble of past lives to build anew,
rebuild the foundations from out of your past.
You'll be known as those who can fix anything,
restore old ruins, rebuild and renovate,
make the community livable again."
