Sharing Christ's Love at the Embassy of Pickerington One of the many ways Violet Baptist Church is making an impact in our community is through the faithful service of the women in our church. Women of Faith has maintained a meaningful relationship with the Embassy of Pickerington Rehabilitation and Nursing Center since our dear church member, Bev Flener, was cared for there before going home to be with the Lord. Over the years, that connection has grown into an ongoing ministry of encouragement and support for both the residents and staff. Recently, Women of Faith group leaders Pam Hawbecker and Gail Reid met with Shereas Cole, Activities Director at the Embassy, to deliver a variety of items for residents, including prizes, games, puzzles, decorations, notecards, and more. (Pictured are samples of some of the supplies donated.) In addition, the Sisterhood of Grace and Women of Faith partnered together to support the Embassy's June Farmers Market. Members of both groups donated homemade baked goods, candies, and fresh fruit to help make the event a special experience for the residents. Noelle Lydic delivered the donations and spent time with Shereas during the visit. These groups have also found meaningful ways to encourage residents throughout the year. The Women of Faith VioletGroup prepared Father's Day cards for the male residents, helping them feel remembered and appreciated. Earlier in May, Pat Taylor lovingly created handmade Mother's Day cards on behalf of the Sisterhood of Grace VioletGroup for the female residents. These thoughtful gestures brought smiles, encouragement, and reminders that they are cared for by their community. Shereas expressed her gratitude for the continued support these groups provide throughout the year. She shared that Violet Baptist Church is currently the only church actively serving and partnering with the facility. This ongoing relationship is a beautiful example of how God uses faithful servants to encourage others and meet practical needs within our community. Through acts of generosity, compassion, and friendship, the women of Violet are helping residents experience care, connection, and the love of Christ. Thank you to everyone in Women of Faith and the Sisterhood of Grace who contributed to this outreach ministry. Your kindness continues to make a meaningful and lasting impact.
