Here is a touching story...
As the
tragedy of Sandy Hook struck last year, Share wanted to show our
compassion and support to the families and communities who lost their
children. The National Share office mailed boxes of Richard Evans' Christmas Box book to Newtown and Sandy Hook families.
We recently received a note from the Sandy Hook Angel of Hope
coordinator and the books were "distributed to Newtown and Sandy Hook
families. It took a while but they got to places where people really
appreciated them. Also the Angel of Hope is at her home at St. Rose of
Lima Parish since the beginning of November. She is so beautiful and
gives a sense of comfort, peace and hope. She is situated on a
landscaped garden across from the elementary school where the children,
the staff and parents walk pass her every day. The Angel is at an angle
that seems no matter where you are, she is looking at you."
The
Angel statue was completed at a perfect time, to provide a place to
visit around the anniversary of the tragedy and also to come together
for the the Angel of Hope Candlelight Vigil that took place on Dec. 6th
nationwide.
