For the gifts that were given to Unity House.




Members of For the Heart Ministry,
Last Friday afternoon, when I came to meet you at our St. Ministry program, I was not expecting the amazing amount of handmade items that you arrived with. We are overwhelmed with gratitude over the amount of time and the prayers you put into these wonderful gifts.
Each year, Unity House provides shelter to over 200 adults and children who are directly or indirectly victims of violence. Most of these families have no one else to turn to for help, and need comprehensive services that only begin with our shelter. Our staff is able to offer many services including legal assistance, medical assistance, and counseling. We are very grateful when the community reaches out to help them as you have. It is a difficult time for victims and their families and during this period Unity House tries to bring a feeling of normalcy and safety to their lives.
For 35 years, Unity House has provided support for area residents in need. We have been able to be there for people when there were no other resources available. Lives have been enhanced, families have been fed, children have been given developmental support, mentally ill adults have been given the chance for a full, productive life and victims of domestic violence have been given shelter and hope.
Your beautiful items will be shared between the families in our domestic violence shelter and families who find themselves in need during the upcoming holiday season.
We have many children in need of warm hats, gloves, scarves and sweaters and it will be wonderful for them to receive something made with love and prayers.
With gratitude and awe for all your good works,
Judy
