Urgent Tub Project - Completed

Wanted to let you all know that the urgent tub repair project that I communicated to you about last week is COMPLETED!

I had a NeighborLink coach who is a contractor contact them and take care of getting the tub replaced and secured for them along with get the plumbing hooked up so they could use the shower. There is still a little bit of drywall work to do but there is a plan for that.

The greatest part about this is that in the hours that coach spent with the family, conversations and relationships began to form. They were able to share about their kids, their lives, and just get to know one another.

I’m thankful for the coach’s willingness to take on such a task and spend a few days helping them get it sorted out. I’m thankful that we were able to respond to an immediate need like this. I can’t imagine not having a working shower in a house where 5 people live.

I followed up with the recipient today and they were so appreciative that they want to give back by taking on projects they feel they can do, like yard work. So, we’re getting them setup on the website and connecting them with other coaches to make sure they can serve as well.

Be encouraged today as you think back on all the service efforts you’ve done in the past and what impact you’ve made whether you know it or not.

A small, intentional act of kindness goes a long way.

Thanks for supporting NeighborLink in time and spirit
