Shared by Sonya Rivera, Program Director
“In the days following the Christmas Dreamland event, we were able to give out meat and food to Bradenton Dream Center families for them to use for their families over winter break. One mom was in tears when she found out that we were giving out food. She didn’t know how she was going to make it, as all she had to cook was rice and peas. She said a prayer before coming into the Dream Center and just asked God to help her. When she saw the coolers full of steaks, pork chops and ground beef, she was in tears, gave us a huge hug, and shared that she had just prayed because she didn’t know what to do. Since that day she has been reminded that God always provides and she has also been reminded of His love.”
