Clearly this project has been steadily growing and reaching families in need. In 1993, Brookfield Lutheran began this annual event purchasing and delivering 12 baskets. For the past 24 years this project has increased in the number of families receiving baskets.
Two additional items were included this year in each box: A letter written from BLC's 7
th and 8
th grade "Life in Jesus" class and the small children's booklet, "Do You Know Who Jesus Is?" published by Lutheran Hour Ministries. We want each family receiving the food to discover their Savior and the love He has for them.
Thanks again to all the congregations in the SW District who contributed to this Thanksgiving outreach. We couldn't continue this project year after year on our own.
