CHILDREN'S WORSHIP

We have teamed up in the last 5 years with seniors all overDallas year around these beautiful seniors knit the most beautiful hats and scarves. Usually the month of November we meet the seniors and they give us scarves to give away freely. I usually find the schools, the Homeless and one to one contact of people in which I meet. There is a cost to providing yarn, needles and material. But also would like the opportunity to extend this to as many senior facilities as I can. I have seen, This has given our seniors a renewed purpose instead of being put in a home and awaiting the obviously outcome, What joy when I bring a group of kids to the facilities and they get to me these wonderful souls who have taken out the time they have to give. So how can we bridge the past with the present? Many of the kids have ask if they could learn this trade? In also visiting with our Seniors, many feel they are not loved and respected. So true that many of our children have no idea the impact these seniors have had. I have always said. I would like to gather 50 seniors in an auditorium and 200 students with note books and here real history that's right here in front of them. Not a textbook based on certain history but real history. In 2010 my daughter had the wonderful opportunity to meet Rosalie Schiff who resided in one of the homes. She was a Holocaust survivor who lived in in 6 different German concentration camps. Who watched her family separated to never see them again. There's a best selling book about her and her husband's life. William & Rosalie: A Holocaust Testimony. To hear the stories she told to myself and daughter and to some of her school friends will be forever etched in our heart. To be able to reach out and touch her and feel her pain was truly historical. When she passed in 2012 my daughter and I both lost something as well. How can we bridge our past heroes with our potential future ones? This is goal. This is why we need funding. My daughter and myself have made the local newspaper on two occasion for the work that we do. We need to extend this work now.
