Room In the Inn
Woodmont volunteers have provided a great experienc
for our Room In the Inn guests this year. People havegone above and beyond in responding to emergencyneeds, volunteering on our regular Friday nights and donating clothing. We are grateful that Boy Scout Troopwill serve on March 7th, as that gives our Woodmontmembers a respite for the week. We are in need, how-ever, for overnight hosts to help on Friday, March 14thand Friday, March 21st. In this season of Lent, when wremember the sacrifice that Christ made for each of us,what better way to honor Him than to sacrifice our timein service to others?

We would like to sincerely thank our Woodmont
family for their prayers, cards, and kind
words throughout this difficult time in our fam-
ily. My father was a very special man, and we are
truly blessed to have many fantastic memories of
times spent together. He left a wonderful legacy
of caring in the things that he did, and the peoplehe touched and he will be sorely missed. It is
never easy to say good-bye to someone, but the
path was made easier by your kind words. My
family and I would like to thank you.
