Hello All!
We are FAST approaching this holiday season, and with that in mind, we have been praying about and discussing date possibilities for the TLC Christmas party this year. In doing this, we have decided, instead, to do something different. In a time when our economy is suffering and people are hurting, we have decided to take the money we would normally spend and give it away.
1.) We will be giving some of it to the Nashville Rescue Mission to feed the homeless during this holiday season. Because we also recognize that giving money is only ½ of what is needed, I have requested date options for us to go serve the homeless ourselves. I will be following up with these date options the first of next week so you can make plans to participate with us in this opportunity.
2.) I have requested that each tech give us 2 names of patients that they come in contact with that could us a helping hand. We will be getting food baskets together for these people and going with the techs to present these baskets to these needy patients. We will try to coordinate these delivery times so that others in the TLC family can participate in the delivery. I will forward more info within the next week on these opportunities as well.
Thanks to each and every one of you for all you do here at TLC. I am personally very thankful for the opportunity I have to work with some of the greatest people anywhere. Please be praying for us as we finalize the details of the above mentioned items. I will be in contact soon with more detail. Thanks again for everything.

I think that's a great idea. Sign me up! :)
So many times I think of giving back to the community by actually going out and serving versus sending a monetary donation. However, I tend to get caught up in my everyday, single mom duties! But....the time to make a difference is NOW. Please count me in too! FYI **weekends are great for me**
I love it. I too have felt the Lord calling me to help other's this year so I have adopted 3 angels from the salvation army that I will be giving to some of my family memebers as gifts, instead of actual gifts.
I think that is a great idea! Count me in!
Wonderful plan, I will certainly be happy to help serve, make gift baskets whatever is needed.
That is a fantastic idea. I was thinking the same think about doing it with my family, but I would love to do it with the TLC family.
