Lisa Announces Book Chronicling The ANGELS Outreach Story

Angels, I’ve been keeping a special secret.

With a grateful heart, I’m excited to share that I wrote a book called “ANGELS Outreach: Our Miracle, My Promise,” the story of 30 years of God’s faithfulness and the promise I made to Him after a miracle changed our lives forever.

This book is a tribute to every volunteer, donor, supporter, and friend who believed in our mission. Thank you for being part of this incredible journey. This story is as much yours as it is mine.

I’ll be holding a book signing event at the end of July; please keep watching our Facebook page and this website for details.

Find the video announcement on our Videos page.

 

Thank you Katie Maskey, and especially thanks to Stella at Take Heart Books in Oregon.

My inspiration; Angel Mia Korotnayi.

Easter Baskets Delivered, Springfield Added To Those Served

I wanted to share with you about the amazing day that we had yesterday for our Easter holiday. Nothing is perfect, and there are always things that will come up, but NOT when you surround yourself with amazing people that believe in you, believe in ANGELS, and have a servant heart to serve those in need, and to quickly resolve any problems that may come up.

We served approximately 115 families and 40 Veterans. We introduced the Springfield-Holland community into our ANGELS Outreach family, adding the SWAT Team to serve a new community for ANGELS Outreach.

To be in the presence of what God has called you to do, the people he has brought into ANGELS, the growth we have had, it is so hard not to be excited of what is going on at ANGELS.

Please bear with me as I share more pictures but, I will never apologize to showcase all of the amazing people that take time out of their day to serve families in need. Families that have reached out to me and said without this food basket, they would not be having an Easter dinner with their family. Families that have said they do have a full-time job, but they just can’t make ends meet.

We hear you and it is our honor to serve this community we all love so much.

We’ve also acquired images from the Lucas County Sheriff’s Office, and Toledo Fire & Rescue. Click or tap here to view the gallery of images.
