Yikes! We apologize but this water and electricity are not mixing well tonight. If you’ve been out here and the lights have been off, we apologize. If you haven’t left your house yet, don’t waste a trip here because we’re not sure the circuits will cooperate!!! Sorry! 🎄🎄🎄

Help a veteran and his family

We are SO HAPPY to let you know that all cash/check/QRC/online donations will be going to 'BEST CHRISTMAS EVER' this year. BCE is sponsoring two families this year and our family lives in St. Francis. Here is their story:

Serving others – Our first family has made it their mission to serve others. John is currently serving his country overseas while his wife of 17 years raises their 3 daughters here in Minnesota. During her husband’s lengthy deployment Sarah learned her father was terminally ill. Knowing this was her children’s last opportunity to know their grandfather she brought her family across the country at great expense so she could help them when they needed her most. Her father ultimately succumbed to his illness this past March. Still Sarah found the strength to help others. Sarah also found time to minister to a lifelong friend. A friend whom she would be forced to say goodbye to all too soon as well. Life’s challenges didn’t stop there. She lost her vehicle a careless driver who rear ended her. She has numerous appliances that remain unrepaired. Her kids struggle to submit their homework on her cellphone, the only device available to do schoolwork online. Despite all of the struggles her and her husband face they still find a way to help others.

***Please donate online if you can. We will also have a QRC code you can scan on the cash drop box or you can donate check or cash in the dropbox. All money raised will be used to get items from their wish list and/or help them with their mortgage. You can read more about BCE by clicking the link. THANK YOU - in advance for supporting this cause!!

Thank you for helping to support a local family who has fallen on hard times to no fault of their own to have the Best Christmas Ever!
