Empathy that leads to action. A thriving community that lifts up another.

In the western world, I would say it is uncommon/unnatural for the majority to embrace and extend assistance to strangers (of course there are those who have huge hearts, selfless, and kind). Meanwhile, in interdependent cultures like in the Middle East, Asia, Africa etc., extended relatives and neighbors are your support system. Oftentimes it's an implied expectation that neighbors would assert themselves to offer assistance. The phrase "mi casa, su casa" highlights this idea of unfiltered connection between people/strangers - the warmth and hospitality evident in those cultures.

I mention this because Gonzales mom reminded me about her neighbor's business. I met this neighbor who has a similar story as the Gonzales. When I dropped off the kids to this neighbor, I was reminded of the residential structure during Jesus' time and the word "oikos". (Not the yogurt! Lol here's a good article I found elaborating on the idea https://churchplants.com/articles/3774-missional-communities-aren-t-the-point-but-they-help.html/2)

So anyway, sharing this neighbor's resin art work (I took a photo while she wasn't looking. I think this piece was already sold). The art was quite lovely, but even lovelier is this neighbor's heart to selflessly help others and her community despite of her current situation. God is at work in this woman's life!

God story: We try our best (me creating this page for the first time, figuring privacy stuff comparing FB group vs FB page etc), but God still answers despite our own efforts :) sooo goood God!

The family received a brand new cookware with cooking spoon today. Hmm they looked more excited with the cookware (to play with) vs the plush toys:p

They have one pan (small-medium size, can fit 3 fried eggs) and no cooking spoon.

And here I am hanging with a friend a few days ago without mentioning of their need, and through her God answered this prayer. (I think it was me who wanted them to have it)
My faith increased :) God is good. ❤️🤗

He answers prayers even before we ask for it. Have faith!

In one of the episodes of Adventures in Odyssey called "A Time for Action", they mentioned the phrase "Adopt-A-Family" where the church met the needs of families around them. So the idea is to connect wonderful humans like yourself to meet the needs of families around us in Calgary to tangibly show the love of Jesus.
This group page is specifically for the Gonzales family. Gonzales moved to Calgary in February 2021. 2nd generation single Filipino mother with 5 children (9y/o old girl, 6y/o girl, 3 y/o boy, 1 y/o girl, newborn girl July 22, 2021).

I will post different urgent needs (goods or services) and if you're able to meet that need, simply comment "gifted" (or to be anonymous please send us a message) and we'll mark the item as "gifted" (taken care of)
PRIVACY: once you hit like, make a comment, send us a message the moderators (myself and the recipient who wish to be anonymous) will send you information for drop off location/time.

In the end, my hope is that your love for this family will blossom, that they will be adopted into your own family, that you will love them the same way Christ loves the church, that your friendship will endure, and the mom and her children will know they were not forsaken by our Maker. =)
