The recent tragedy at the Sandy Hook School in Newtown, CT has affected us all. But none quite as much as the children who survived it. One of the efforts being made by the school and the Newtown PTSA (Parent Teacher Student Association) is to bring the students back after the break to a new location. They are now calling for the community, and the world, to make snowflakes to cover the inside of the new school. They want to make it a "winter wonderland" for them. The show of world-wide love and support will do so much for these children and the community.
ADF wants to show our love and support coupled with unity. We are asking each grove and solitary to take time to make a snowflake and send them to our collection point. Deb Field is collecting the snowflakes and will be sending them to the Newtown PTSA on behalf of ADF. They need to arrive at her address before January 7th. So we dont have much time to get in gear and get these made and sent. But I am confident in our ADF family to rise to the occasion.
Please send snowflakes (Before January 7th) to:
Deb Field
27 Chaplin St.
Chaplin, CT 06235
May our love and that of the Kindreds bring healing and peace to all who have been harmed. And like the Sun on its return, may the Kindreds shine new, warming light within our hearts and upon the world.
Bright healing blessings,
Rev. Kirk Thomas
