On this Christmas morning, we leave you with the 4th Agreement:
Have the Christmas that IS today- your best will change from day to day, moment to moment. And that is ok.

ARYA’s first house Christmas dinner and gathering. 🥹💚❤️
So, so grateful….
Grateful for these women, this opportunity for them in their recovery and healing journey, grateful for our staff, their families who came for dinner tonight (Erin- we miss you guys!), grateful for this property, and SO grateful for you- our community.

Those of you who got the women gifts- they LOVE them! There’s no way to measure fully what that means to all of us in our own ways.

Yesterday- Lisa & Christine- thank you for taking the women to Lakeside for the light show and for the cookies you sent home with them. They are beautiful
( I believe they’re from Wish Me A Rainbow Cookie)!

❤️💚Our hearts and bellies are full. We have food, shelter, peace, healing, love, safety, connection, community, and…. HOPE.

🎄Merry Christmas from ALL of us at ARYA.
We wouldn’t be here without our community!

When one of the resident’s birthdays is on Christmas Eve, you find a way to separate the two things.

The ladies put in such a heartfelt effort to surprise her with these decorations before she got up for work really early this morning. 🥹
Amazing work, ladies! 👏

The connection and sense of community with the women here are so strong and genuine. It’s an honor to be in that space with them.

Happy Birthday to ****** (we’ll keep her anonymous- but you know who you are!)!
You deserve to have the best birthday yet!
🎂🥳🎈🎉🎁

12/20 - ✨️stock✨️ Wipes, cotton swabs, lighters, feminine hygiene (I will be grabbing more tomorrow), the world's longest socks, and the last of the stocking stuffers. I'm delivering the final gift bags today!
I have met with a couple of awesome neighbors who regularly visit and have let me know that one of the biggest needs is hygiene items (deoderant, toilet paper, shampoo, etc.) I am doing some shopping tomorrow, but figured I would throw that out there for all you lovely folks who have asked how to help. ❤️
