Sharing hope with others

Members of "hope gathering;' a non-profit Christian organization that helps bring comfort, encouragement, community, hope and purpose to hurting widows delivered "Bags of Hope" to the Grimes County District Attorney's Office victims services. The backpacks are filled with comforting items such as blankets, pillows, activity books and toiletries that are distributed to child victims of crime. Isaiah 32:18 was prayed over the bags before they were donated, "My people will live in peaceful dwelling places, in secure homes, in undisturbed places of rest."
