How your gifts helped people feel connected, even while they were apart!
David was so excited to get his Retreat in a Box delivered to his front door! Your kindness and generosity filled David’s box with tangible items that reminded him of the joy of belonging to community.
Because of the caring support of donors and friends like you, David and his friends had a fun week of learning to ‘See Clearly’ the glory of God! Your prayer and financial support meant that David and his friends had video lessons and interactive zoom lessons.
They wore their special t-shirts, completed daily challenges and experiments, filled in their journals….all from the comfort and security of their own homes. And yet, they had fun and together made memories.
Thank you for helping to provide our friends with disabilities a week of purpose-filled learning and the joy of connection with others.
A look at some of the amazing moments you helped create through Retreat in a Box!
Retreat in a Box has meant so much to the individuals we support. It has been a week of meaning and purpose in the middle of a very long season of waiting. It has been hard to think of ways to bring hope and joy when we know that the people we support are feeling alone and discouraged. We are so thankful for the creativity and adaptability of Hope Centre Ministries. This has been an amazing week that has helped us all to take time to find the beauty within ourselves and the world around us. The Zoom calls have been exciting and meaningful, the videos are so impactful, and the activities and supplies have brought many hours of fun. Thank you for all of the work that went into organizing this week, and to the donors who helped to make this accessible for us. It has truly been an inspiring week! (from an agency support staff)
