Greetings!
When community groups work together - even greater impact can happen. We are very excited to have the Women's Service Day group coming alongside WestCore Neighbors and New Community 4th Reformed to bring change and possibilties to community.
In our busy schedules, helping or even getting to know our neighbors may seem difficult. Here are some WestCore neighbors that appreciated the time taken to meet and work together.
Vidal Martinez has a brain tumor which brings physical limitations but
Aurora and Vidal celebrate progress
certainly doesn't hinder his encouraging and cheerful attitude toward his neighborhood. He shared that he has volunteered many hours at the Holland Hospital so it was great to see the giving spirit returned to him.
Several women from Johnson Controls joined the service day for their first year and worked diligently to scrape and paint his home in one day. His mother Aurora who lives a few houses away, did a lot of prep work and shared snacks with the workers.
Great job everyone! Thank you Vidal for letting us be a part of this day!
