Springs Rescue Mission would like to thank all of those who spent their Saturday volunteering in Colorado Springs at our Easter Alive Celebration! It was a complete success. We served 872 meals, 115 professional photos with the Easter bunny were taken and given to children and their families and over $8,000 in items were given away free of charge!! Here's what one recipient had to say about the event: "My daughter, granddaughter and I were praying last night for help with getting gasoline. Our prayers were answered when we received a $50 gift card from Wal-mart. That will help us with getting gasoline." Our Outreach Coordinator, Karen had this to say: "What a wonderful celebratory event Saturday was! It was the smoothest and "funnest" one ever. There were lots of smiles, laughter and people constantly thanking us. Everyone had a good time and ate well too." We are so proud and grateful for each and every one of you that came to serve during this blessed event. Thank you!
