7/6 You warmed my heart.

What a wonderful surprise I received today! So unexpected but it warmed my heart to know that someone out there was thinking of me and praying for me. As a Mom, the death of a child is the worst thing imaginable but it’s people like you who who remind me there is still a lot of goodness and kindness in the world.
Thank you so much. I can’t put into words how much your acknowledgment means to me.

8/1 Made my day!

I have absolutley no idea how, who or where these amazing smiling faces came from. Arms full of gifts and flowing hearts. I can't express how surprised, excited and thankful I am. I LOVE what you are doing with your heartfelt giving and humility. This is GOD with skin!
Thank you so much,

8/20 An amazing, totally unexpected blessing we received just a few moments ago

What an amazing, totally unexpected blessing we received just a few moments ago. I am shocked in the best possible way! Who does this kind of thing - 12 ‘ordinary’ women who are angels on earth! The financial gift and the encouraging card - to know that we are cared about and prayed for by others who know our story but not necessarily us, is simply astonishing. There are no adequate words to express our gratitude. Thank you to our 12 Ordinary Women! You certainly are not ordinary to us. May the Lord continue to bless you all and the ministry of hope you offer!

8/3 Still full of joy!

Ladies, I am still full of joy and appreciation every time I use one of the gifts from my basket. I am so grateful you thought of me, especially since there are so many women who really need all of our prayers and kindness. The basket came on a day where I really was tired and it just lifted me up.

I just love the necklace. It is the most special to me, but I really enjoy the loofah which has been so helpful as I gather range of motion. I actually needed a citrus press and kept putting off buying one to make my lemon water. Another little favorite is the notebook. I use it daily.

Thank you for finding time in your busy work and family lives to really make a thoughtful difference. I will never forget this. Carliss

8/2 Love and gratitude

Hello, I came back to your site as I have always wondered how I can get involved and pay it forward. I glanced through the "SUBMIT A THANK YOU" and saw the post that many had been lost in 2020 so I wanted to repost my gratitude, and try to find a way to get involved in the future with 12 Ordinary Women. I feel like these 12 women are angels and I think of this often.

I had just lost both of my dear parents in quick succession in 2020 (one of which was unexpected). To say I was grief stricken and overwhelmed was an understatement. I wish I had answered the door to meet the angels that brought me a wonderful care package which included loving notes of encouragement, prayers, and bible verses. I still have no words to express what that meant to me. I do NOT have a green thumb, but have been working very hard to nourish and maintain the beautiful succulent plants - and so far they are still going strong!!

I would love to get involved and help other women in need, knowing what it meant to me. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

I found your note and package by my back door

I was shocked when I returned home yesterday and found your note and package by my back door. To say that it has been a challenging time since my husband unexpectedly passed away would be an understatement. It's been a really hard week too anticipating our first Father's Day without him and his birthday. This surprise brought hope and tears to my eyes. My family has benefited from so much kindness and generosity since John passed away. I am so grateful for the amazing family and friends in our life who help us to carry on even on the days when I want to crawl into my bed and not come out. Thank you so much for your kindness, sweet message, and love.

Words cannot express how special it is to receive such a nice gift

What a sweet surprise to come back to on a Friday afternoon of a long week! I truly am blessed to be able to share the love I have been given with anyone I meet. Words cannot express how special it is to receive such a nice gift, and from anonymous givers. I wish I could give a warm hug and smile to each of you and let our Lord hear His children together. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Thank you for the basket

Jesus is amazing!! Your basket came today full of comfort and joy in a time when we have little of either. Thank you for loving us, for loving Jesus and through Him, giving to us. I know we are not alone in this walk and this basket today marks a point in the road where we can rest a minute, catch our breath, and remember the load is too much for us alone. Thank you again and if you can connect this thank you to the ones who sent this gift, I would deeply appreciate it!

Peace to you all,
Chris
