Growing up, Fatima Anfig remembers her mother asking their neighbor for salt. She knew they still had salt so she questioned why her mother asked for more. Fatima’s mother replied, “Because our neighbors don’t have a lot of money and often they ask us for something. From time to time I also ask them for something small and inexpensive, so that they feel that we need them too. This way they will feel more comfortable and easier for them to keep asking for everything they need.”
In the first round of the NCAA Men’s Tournament, at Spokane Arena, Yale was playing Auburn. When the band members from the University of Idaho learned that Yale’s band would not be able to be at the tournament, they decided to play for Yale for their game. In appreciation, the supporters from Yale bought the band members a blue t-shirt, with a Y on it, to wear during the game.
Ryann Bauer, Misty Bridges, and Angie Rosenkranz, and their committee, have spent months collecting prom gowns for the Junior and Senior young ladies in Montgomery County.

May we, too, have generous hearts that find ways to invest our time, talents, and resources to help and encourage others.
For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Ephesians 2:10
