Everything — including holidays with family — gets put on hold when someone enters residential treatment. That's why this Easter gift from Mount Hope Church is so meaningful.

When moms and dads are in treatment, they can't fill baskets for kids — so Mount Hope played the role of Easter Bunny. These baskets are BEAUTIFUL. And now parents, aunts and uncles or grandparents in our care will have a treat to share with their young family members visit.

Thank you, Mount Hope, for blessing the families in our care with this heartwarming holiday gift.

ABOUNDING GRATITUDE: With more thanks to give than we could ever express, let's start here.

FOR OUR CLIENTS: You inspire us with your courage, your determination, your hard work and your willingness to fight on — through tears and laughter, through obstacles and victories, through pain and relief, through setbacks and breakthroughs. You see it all and keep your eyes on the prizes of lifelong recovery and a new life. What an incredible journey you are taking. We are honored you share it with us, your biggest fans.

FOR OUR STAFF: Your compassion moves hearts and inspires minds. Your professionalism gets results. Your dedication sets an example. You find new solutions when it seems like someone is out of options. You never give up and you never stop caring. You make our community — our neighbors, our family — better, stronger, healthier and more hopeful. You didn't choose this calling because it's easy. You chose it to make a difference. And you do.

FOR OUR DONORS AND PARTNERS: You provide the light in the darkness! You keep a roof over the heads and hope in the hearts of our poorest neighbors as they rebuild their lives. You have kept us going (for 65 years!) by giving of yourself. By sharing. By volunteering. By listening. By supporting. Whether you realize it or not, YOU are the vital connection between the two leaves in the photo on this post — bringing people in need closer to those who can help. "Thanks" can't possibly express our depth of gratitude.

But we'll say it anyway: Our thanks to everyone who is part of this vibrant, healing, and hopeful community. May all of you have a healthy, peaceful and happy Thanksgiving. ❤️
