Dear Editor,

A heart-felt thank you is given to all the local ministries who served the needy elderly and needy children during this Christmas.

Feed My Sheep, God's Hands, Angel Nicole Ministry, Bybee United Methodist Church, First United Methodist Church, Cocke County Republican Women's Club, The Sheriff's Department, and many local ministries (including those from Indian Creek Campground Retreat) joined with Green Pastures Ministries to make this a truly Christ filled, bountiful Christmas. Without all of these willing hands and caring hearts, none of this would have been possible. Thanks again from the staff at Green Pastures Ministries.

Sylvia Jones
