Do you know any one that has breast cancer?
That’s the question
we asked when we had our fund raiser on Friday at a Community Hospital. We spoke with 14 people who either had the Cancer or someone in the family or friends and coworkers are survivors. We asked the question because wanted to do as the bible
says comfort the ones suffering with Breast Cancer.
2 Corinthians 1;
3,4, 7
3 Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of
tender mercies and the God of all comfort, 4 who
comforts us in all our trials so that we may be able to comfort others in any
sort of trial with the comfort that we receive from God.
And our hope for you is unwavering, knowing
as we do that just as you share in the sufferings, so you will also share in
the comfort.
The five of us (volunteers) talked about our experiences with breast
cancer, mammograms, and treatments and shared some encouraging bible thoughts
from the bible with these individuals. Some were given bags and others we will
get in touch with to give them one of Jessie’s Bags. If we have been able to
encourage just one person I feel like it was a very successful event. We reached
out to at least 14. Being able to share the comfort and this experience was
very encouraging to the 5 of us all who have been in some way affected by the
disease.... The bible says there is more
happiness in giving than there is in receiving.
Who do you know that is a Breast Cancer
Survivor?
