The Salvation Army of Central Maryland

Thank you to our dear friends, Christina & Eddie for their selfless generosity! They give of their time, their talents, and their financial blessings as they join us in fulfilling our mission this Christmas season. Please grab a copy or two of their book, Engaged on Christmas Eve. It is a love story and so much more--a great read over the break and a great gift for all the Christmas lovers on your list!

Very productive lunch with Shavez and Kimberly from the Baltimore Chamber of Commerce. It’s always good to broaden your friendship and networking base! Thanks ladies, it was a pleasure!

Two of our amazing local volunteers: Larry Pope & Pinchas "Pinny" Margolius are in Georgia assisting with disaster relief efforts. Here is last night's update in Larry's own words: "Good morning! Just left morning briefing. Going back to Alamo, ga in mins. Got 700 meals for lunch. meatloaf and stuff. Late night last night in Colin's GA, didn't get back till 11 something and after cleaning trucks, etc, light out at 1:20 this morning. Super night last night we fed approximately 2 ,500 dinners. Pulled pork on bun, fruit cup, chips in a bag and water. 1,000 cars waited before we got there. Had county sheriffs, several local people and the ga airborne. With about 30 people helping. So busy had to have operations mgr drive to see us. 62 percent still without power in ga as of this morning. Really strange having army guys side by side helping in the middle of nowhere with no lights except both army lights. Had 1 guy try to give $20 for a meal. I said no of course, but I cried. Only 2 times so far crying. Capt manning the esc is my spiritual. Advisor here. Driving back last night I partial hit a tree hanging over the road. Total darkness couldn't see it till to late. Really hot and bugs everywhere. So many trees down in roads, you go around them. Everyone things I'm unusual with my junk snacks from Walmart here and bucees. Some lotting still of stores, but it's not our job to stop it. I am team 6 today with a major and 2 ladies from Eva and Va. that's it for now." Please keep everyone in your prayers.
