This from our friend who works at the Denver Rescue Mission (written this past Wednesday)...
"Each year we hold a turkey drive to feed the poor and needy in the Denver Metro area. This year our goal was 10,000 turkeys. We use a small portion of those turkeys at the Mission for holiday meals and to meet our need for varied protein as we serve the homeless throughout the year. But, the majority of the turkeys we receive are given out to smaller agencies and churches in the area on Friday and Saturday of this week as they prepare to serve their communities of need. With only a few short days remaining, we have received less than 1,000 of the needed 10,000 turkeys. We know that through the grace of God and through the donations of countless individuals such as yourself, we will be able to meet the needs of the Denver Rescue Mission, as well as the needs of those other agencies."
