My commitment began in
October, 2001. Right after 9/11, God put our Troops on
my heart… I have been committed to pray for them and
send care packages…. "I" became "we"….. We became Desert
Angels, Inc.; a 501(c)3 nonprofit ministry… Care
packages became "Miracle
Boxes" in Oct. 2007.
So many people
have helped so many times, in so many different ways to
make this possible. I continue to ask for postage….
With great thought and
prayer, God put on my heart to just ask for a
commitment:
Would you make a monthly commitment
to sponsor the postage for 1 or 2 boxes?
The cost to mail each box
is $14.95.
If we could get 100 people to commitment to a
box monthly, we would have postage to mail 100 "Miracle"
boxes the VERY day we pack them!!!
That would be a MIRACLE!!
We ARE packing
"Miracle" boxes… A Miracle for a "Miracle" box! I LOVE
IT!
I would ask you, with your
commitment, to write a letter to our Troops, letting
them you know you are committed to paid for the postage,
to keep shipping the "Miracle Boxes". They have
made a commitment to our country, and some sacrifice
their life. Joe Miracle did… For freedom!
We will put your letter in
the "Miracle Boxes". Please include your contact
information; the soldier just might correspond back to
you. We hope someday to publish the many letters,
we have received back from our Troops.
Since 2001,
we have collected items, packed items, counted the
number of boxes we packed, and then asked for the
postage. Praise God! He has always provided!!
In 2007
we have made a commitment to Oxford Meijers Store to
pack "Miracle" boxes in their store on the 11th day of
every month… on the average we pack close to 100.
We need to start
shipping these boxes the very day, instead of holding
them in my office/garage, waiting on postage.
Sometimes we hold so long the name/address on the box is
no longer current.
In 2007 Desert Angels,
Inc. paid for postage to send 2355 boxes. (So you can
see on the average we really do send about 200 each
month). We have also assisted others where they paid for
the postage. That brings an estimated total of
6029 Miracle Boxes just for 2007!
I recently got a short,
one-sentence email from a soldier:
"How can my 42 man unit receive miracle boxes? GARY"
Gary asked me that question…. NOW I ask you … How can we
get postage to send 42 "Miracle" boxes to this unit?
If
you would like to make a monthly, tax deductible
commitment to send Miracle Boxes to Our Troops, Please
contact Louise at
Louise@TheDesertAngel.org
or call 248-736-6403.
Thank you for your consideration.
Remember, only two
defining forces have ever offered to die for you: Jesus
Christ and the American Soldier.
One died for your
soul, the other for your freedom!
