God please send me an angel I'm trying so hard I know you work in mysterious ways I will not lose faith in you. Thank you for all you have blessed me an my family with.
Hello bnw614,
My name is Sara Richardson, and I do not know if we live to far away or not for you to be able to consider helping my family this year. We live in Bradford Ohio, on the other side of Troy. I think it is absolutely wonderful of you to help people like this for the holidays, and even though we may not be the ones your able to help, I pray that you are as Blessed always. Anyhow, I don't know if you want to know about us, but, I have 4 amazing children, Jonathan, 10, Jarrett, 9, Maralee, 8, and Kaylee " Buttons" is 6. I was a single mom for many years after leaving their abusive father when he broke my jaw. We lost everything we had, and it has taken years for us to get back on our feet. We now have a wonderful loving warm home. Money is still tight, but I am in school full time, and I am in love with a wonderful man who I will have been with 3 years soon. He helps support us, and life is wonderful, i have few complaints. This holiday season was going to be the first ever that I was able to provide a Christmas for my family. I personally have no other relatives besides my children, and have had no support until I met David. We had managed to save up a few hundred dollars for Christmas, until I wrecked my only form of transportation, putting us $800. in the hole. Now I find myself stressing about a van that doesnt run correctly with no speedometer and no gas gauge, not sure if we will have much food, or any other non food essential items like toilet paper and shampoo, and even though I am putting up the decorations we have, I worry our electricity may get shut off. Its stressful, but I am so thankful that my children are excited for Christmas, and that they know the meanings of it, and are not worried about not receiving gifts. I am blessed, and I pray your family is as blessed as mine.
We are looking for a needy family to help have a nice Christmas.
This is something our family does every year so we joined this site after running across it.
Please let us know your situation?
How many kids and age ?
What they are asking for? Please do not ask for Xboxs, computers, things of that nature.
This is something myself and my partner with my sister and brother inlaw and 2 nieces have done together for 3 years.
We get great enjoyment in making sure one family has a nice Christmas as we do as a Family.

Help! I need help on bills. I've been disabled for some time now (I had a stroke). I have a couple of bills that have gone into collections, and I was talking to a collector recently who mentioned these resources. If it's possible I would like to get these bills paid off. There are a couple that are $2000 and not being able to work to pay these off has become a problem. I don't make enough with disability to make payment arrangements in order to pay these off. I'm considered permanently disabled. I want to work, but because of the tremor I have in my left hand and very limited use of it, I'm not able.

in response to lunar*star...Im sorry, are you asking me a question about what the Bible says about going to a church building? I have studied the Bible some. I would enjoy talking with you about the Bible, Im sure GOD has opened your heart to many things also.
in response to montedreams...and no were in the bible does it say you must go to a type of building to honor Him on the Sabath.he is in us everywere,you can worship and honor him and conduct a church at your own home.praying,reading the bible,in which very way you feel to honor him,in your home on the sabath.
Hi, How are you? I was just thinking of you and wondering how you are getting along. I see you have a pounding headache. Me too! I have had my battles with that quite a bit too. Hope you have a great night!
in response to Bee's Knees...So we walk in unity, my friend. Jesus is the WAY and the TRUTH and the very source of true LIFE. We are not living unless we know HIM and walk with HIM daily in and thru every situation. non-denominational has also become a tag(; HA!HA! So many people feel they need to be a part of this group or that group, it is a shame! Yes, I very much agree with u, ,we are to be in unity and walk as 1 body in CHRIST! DUE to the flesh NOT the spirit, there are so many different church groups. But we know who is truly behind all the division! For the thief comes but to STEAL, KILL and DESTROY! We must truly guard our hearts when we have the heart of bringing the unity of the faith! I was HIT the hardest when I was growing deeper and deeper in GODS knowledge and understanding about UNITY. I do not claim any tag, but that i am a christian. For me, the WORD is true and anything opposite of the WORD of GOD is a lie!
Hebrews 12:1-2 speaks of the sin that so easily ensnares us! that sin is taking our EYES off of JESUS in any situation, for HE is the author and finisher of our faith. When we do not seek or look to JESUS in a situation, but focus on the circumstances, we have open the door to falingl on our face, messing up!
I do not seek after the blessings of GOD, but I hunger to continuly know GOD deeper and deeper and then quiet naturally HIS blessings follow(: But I am not really into material things, I do not desire much in this world as many do! I guess GOD has blessed me that way(: If I was to be blessed with alot, I would just give it to those in need, my friend(: If GOD did bless me with away to make money, it would be awesome because I would continue to bless others. The greatest blessing is knowing GOD and being able to hear HIS voice((: and as well...the true blessing is being able to be a blessing((: I am nothing without HIM; HE is the vine of life and iam but a branch. It has been wonderful talking with u and hope we can continue to fellowship(: Please tell me, what is your 1st name?
May GOD bless u and keep u always!
monte
Wow, Monte, this sounds wonderful! In years past, I wished for just such an offer. I will pray God sends you just the right person to fill your request. I glanced your photo out of the corner of my eye on another page and saw you are from OK. After all the storms, are you ok?
God Bless you and keep you safe.
in response to montedreams...Ok, my relationship with Jesus...wow, that is a big one....I have known HIM since I was little, so we go way back. He is my all in all.
How do you describe that?
I can't take a breath without HIM!
We have been through some rough weather together, and HE had never left my side.
Even when it seems I am lost and abandoned, I KNOW I'm not, no matter what.
I have attended different types of churches in the past, but now, I do not claim a specific denomination. I guess that makes me non-denominational.
I don't believe Jesus ever intended us to divide up into different groups to worship him in.
I just believe in what the word of God says.
I am always up for questions that challenge what I believe, and measuring it against the word to find out what the real TRUTH is. What we are taught in life is not always the truth, so we have to seek out the real truth.
in response to montedreams...Well, Thank you! You just made my day! I must say, though, you are dead wrong about one thing. You are obviously a blessing to more than one person at a time. So glad you are ok. From my research, it looks like more bad weather is coming, so be safe!
I'm with you on wishing I could do more financially to help others. We do what we can, huh?
May God bless you and keep you.
Glad you are here.
in response to Bee's Knees...What state do u live in? Do u have really bad weather? Normally only in certain areas of Oklahoma does the weather get real bad. I live close to the Texas boarder and the weather never gets that bad(: But I do not watch the News that often,lol, I know Jesus watches over me((:
Have a wonderful day!
GOD bless U(:
in response to Bee's Knees...GOOD MORNING!
Thank u! That is so sweet of u to say that(: I would love to know about ur relationship with Jesus and what u believe or what denominational church do u go to?(: I love getting into the word(:
in response to Bee's Knees...Hello(:
How are u doing this morning?
So nice to hear from u(: I have seen ur pic as well and read your posts. U are a true blessing in this world, my friend.
Yes, everything is well here in south eastern, Ok. I live near the Tx boarder and have never seen a tornado in my life, Praise GOD!
I truly appreciate your encouraging words. But I just have a heart for people that are hurting and broken, I always have. Believe me, I wish I had the brains and funds to help a large amount of women and children in need. But if Jesus will allow me to be apart in His work to even help 1 person at a time, I will feel truly blessed.
Have a wonderful day(:
May GOD bless u and keep u always!
Monte
in response to Help!!...Your situation is difficult and you need to make an even more difficult decision. Your children are your number one priority and having a boozer in the house creates a chaotic and turbulent life style for them. This will ultimately lead them into the high risk for crime/poverty cycle, I know; I’m a child of an alcoholic and a recovering drug/alcohol abuser myself. If she’s helping with the bills and you need the money it’s understandable, however I think it would be best for her to go else where. You and you kids don’t need that crap that an alcoholic causes, nothing is worth that. It would be the same if you were with an abusive man, and one who runs out on his family is quite the douche I must say. Ditch the boozer/looser and find an alternative, just hang in there, something good will come.
in response to Help!!...You could apply for disability for your aunt. Then you can apply for taking care of her.
Have an intervention. Have her go to AA and if she don't she'll have to go, unless you plan on baby sitting her the whole time she's there.
in response to Help!!...First you need to go to the Department of Human Resources and apply for state aid and food stamps, in fact you can apply on line. Apply for W.I.C.
You can go to my homepage and I have listings there that should be of help.
You can visit some of these other fine peoples homepages and find more information on different subjects and there are some with about the same.
If you need help getting arod on the website let me know and I'll help. You don't mind if the are cloth diapers do you?
in response to Help!!...I went threw something kinda like yours my husband had a drinking problem and one night he got really drunk and went to charge at me and my son and my baby sitter got my son out of the way, well to make a long story short he beat me up really bad I got away from him and called 911 the cops came he went to jail for a little over a month and had to go threw child parenting classess AA and conceling for his bad temper and now he has been sober for 3 1/2 years and is a compleatly a different man and he just moved back home with us a year ago. So for your self and your aunt I would say hard love is hard but that is what got my husband to be a sober new loving man HARD LOVE IT SUCKS BUT FOR SOME PEOPLE IT WORKS. Good luck
I have another problem I would really appreciatte any advice that I could get.....my aunt has recently moved in with me so I can care for her she is an alcoholic and has recently started drinking again I dont know what to do?? Has anyone else gone through this or know what to do?? Please give me some advice I just dont know what to do!!!
in response to Schmidty...yes I am a 29 yr old mother of 5 n am currently seperated from my husband who left me with nothing n no way to pay my bills I dont know what to do I have no job and no way to pay my bills or buy diapers for my 2 small children
in response to shotcaller69...You aren't going to want to hear this but the truth of the matter is that there are few grant that are for personal uses.You have to get a non profit to help you .and that takes a long time both to write it up and to get it. Aidpage has a sister site that has two programs that help you if you still choose to try first one is foundations; www.grantgate.com and the other you can tell from the title: www.thefederalmoneyretriever.com. Both are free , it helps guide you and tells you what you need to know.
While you are working on your project visit my homepage . I have several pages of information that will be of help to you. then I would advise to visit some of the other Aidmates here on Aidpage and they will do their bst to help you also.
