Gulf Coast Community Ministries receives an unexpected surprise

Gulf Coast Community Ministries received an unexpected surprise in the mail.

Michael Wilson, executive director of Gulf Coast Community Ministries, checked the mail and to his surprise there was a package filled with hundreds of beautiful individually packaged homemade cards containing scripture and notes of encouragement.

This package was from a woman by the name of Lisa who lives 1,342 miles away in Salt Point, New York. Wilson said, “It took a second to soak in as I got to looking at it, I finally recognized the detail and the level of workmanship that went in to this. It dawned on me that Ms. Lisa must have spent hundreds of hours putting this together so much that I looked her up and found her up in New York state and called her to thank her and just find out her story and why she connected with our ministry down here in Gulfport, Mississippi.”

The care packages will be distributed through their food pantry, their clinic, and to their homeless outreach through Gulfport.
