H.O.M.E. Says Thank You

What A Wonderful Morning! The residents were asleep sound in their beds, When doors swung open and over their heads - “Merry Christmas, Wake up” came from above, Our resident staff Tammy, her heart filled with love. The residents at House of Mercy enjoyed a wonderful Christmas morning. After being awakened by Staff Resident Tammy with coffee and a filling breakfast of biscuits and gravy, the group gathered in the day room to experience the joys of receiving. While Senior residents Charlee and Aaron played the role of elves handing out gifts,. Expressions of awe and joy were written across faces of people who truly did not expect to receive gifts this year. The holidays can be hard on those who find themselves in a shelter and adrift from family. However, thanks to the community in Olney, that was not the case at House of Mercy on Christmas morning. House of Mercy residents would like to extend a sincere thank you to all who donated to make our Christmas morning wonderful. The Olney Community, The Angel Tree, and The Jr. Altruistic Club among others. As always, we would like to thank the staff of House of Mercy and the Perry’s Foundation for their continued love and dedication to this ministry. Nancy Bowden
