[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because not everybody wants somebody to do something. Assuming they want food or visitors is presumptuous. Somebody should create a caring bridge and actually communicate her wants. [/quote] We did a Sign Up genius for a single mom friend who had a major medical crisis. Others farther away sent Visa gift cards to help cover bills. For weeks, she didn't have to worry about meals, laundry, lawn care, childcare during medical appointments, etc. Almost a year later, she confided that she felt loved, but lonely. Everyone was rushing around doing for her, but no one was being with her. She wanted pastoral care. The nondenominational church she belonged to was entirely volunteers with FT jobs and families and they did casseroles and a blood drive, but again not much extended prayer with her in her home ironically. She actually ended up joining an online prayer and bible study group just to get the spiritual comfort she was seeking.[/quote]
