Honoring the Wholeness in Life

It never ceases to amaze me how generous people can be! This is one of our more beautiful qualities as humans, our capacity for compassion and kindness. This, unfortunately, is not evident to most Americans who watch the news and read the paper everyday, the daily fear report.

It’s sad, really, when you think about it.

The news really teaches us to fear one another and to feel alone and unsupported when in reality nothing could be further from the truth. I have learned this first hand in the past few weeks in planning my event to benefit survivors of domestic abuse and animals. I am having a bake sale and a raffle and have been asking local area businesses to donate items to raffle. The response has been terrific! People are coming out of nowhere wanting to support the cause! It should be a grand event! Thank you to everyone who is participating!

If you are in the area, come out and buy some muffins and a raffle ticket…you could win a great prize and at the same time feel great about serving a good cause. If you come out, please also bring your gently used clothing, toys and cell phones to donate to the shelters.

Bake Sale and Raffle
November 3 2007
11am to 6pm
Morning Glory Market
3260 Niles Rd
Saint Joseph, MI

This is a benefit for the Safe Shelter for women and children survivors of domestic abuse and sexual assault and for Animal Aid, a local no kill shelter that rescues, houses and re-homes countless animals yearly.

Please bring your gently used clothing and toys for the shelter and old cell phones, projectkopeg has offered recycle these phones and send us a check for the shelter!

We will also have lots of yummy homemade baked goods for sale; I am even resurrecting some of my old dog treat recipes from my years as DharmaDog! We will also be selling catnip mice and squeaky fuzzy dog bones!

Hope to see you there!
