Dear Gadson and Ozola,
Thanks for making a difference in your local community. God bless you as you move forward in following Christ’s injunction “love your neighbor”.

Dear Gadson and Ozola,
It is always so pleasant to to hear of such dedication and love extended in one’s community. May the plans you two have helped to develop there in your community be a blessing to all your neighbors who are in need. Thank you both for your hard work on such a good project.
David and Linda Husmann, Sioux City IA, and Omaha NE Churches, respectfully.
What a beautiful picture and story of involvement accompanying it. Truly inspiring.
