Whew… when I tell y’all the SFC CARE Center has a LOT of moving parts, sometimes things can get a little crossed 😅
I had our volunteers all lined up for a Good Friday truck (it was on the order calendar), but I missed the updated delivery date. Thank the Lord I get there early every morning, because to my surprise… pallets of food were already sitting outside waiting! 👀
But God always sends help right on time 🙌🏽
A HUGE thank you to Ms. Sandy, Mrs. Brenda, and Mr. Theo Brown for coming to my rescue and helping unload that truck on VERY short notice! Y’all truly showed up and showed out!
And to top it off, we were reopening the thrift store that same day, talk about a busy morning!
If you see these amazing neighbors today, PLEASE tell them thank you. I am so grateful for their willingness to jump in and help without hesitation.
Lesson learned… I will definitely be reading ALL my emails next time! 😂

Good morning neighbors ☀️
These ladies didn’t ask for recognition, but they absolutely deserve it. For the past few months, Brenda Holmes and Johnnie Nell Carroll have been working tirelessly, even on weekends, helping organize the SFC CARE Center. Their hard work, dedication, and true gift for organizing have made such a difference, and we are grateful not only for them, but for their families who support the time they give.
Because of them, I can now reopen the thrift store with confidence, and navigate through the center to assist those in need. Many of you know we receive an abundance of generous donations, but with limited staff, it can become overwhelming. That’s why I’ve had to restrict or turn down items at times. Their help has brought order where it was much needed.
A heartfelt thank you to Forrest City United Methodist Church for their continued support of this center. It truly takes a village.
Like the stone soup parable, when everyone brings what they can, something beautiful comes together. I’m so grateful they chose to give their time to SFC CARE Center ❤️
