Relay For Life - Team Saving Grace
Would
you like to help in the fight against cancer?
Join
Team Saving Grace in the Relay For Life on April 23rd at
Canyon State Academy in Queen Creek. Invite family and friends to
join you.
Fighting cancer is a team effort. The impact we
can make together is much greater than what any of us could do
alone.
At the American Cancer Society Relay For Life, our team will camp
out overnight and take turns walking around the track to raise money
and awareness to help the American Cancer Society save more lives
from cancer. By joining or donating to our team, you will be a part
of a life-changing event that gives everyone in the community a
chance to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer,
remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that
takes too much.
You can also remember someone who has been touched
by this disease with a luminaria. Each individual’s name will
appear on a luminaria and will be lit at the ceremony to shine as a
beacon of hope for others. Luminaria donations are $10.
Please make a donation, or join our team and help
us create a world where cancer can no longer claim another year of
anyone’s life.
For more information go to

make a donation, or purchase a luminaria go to

You may also contact me if you have any questions
or would like to make a donation.

Jose’s
Closet
Jose’s Closet is a non-profit service organization serving
adoptive and foster parents. It was started and is managed by Rick
& Wendy Esquibel, members of Saving Grace.
“Wendy and Rick would like to thank the wonderful members of Saving
Grace for all their help with Jose’s Closet. Here’s a letter that
shows the impact that this ministry is having”...
To Whom
It May Concern:
My name
is April and I am an adoptive mother to 6 great kids that we adopted
from the State of Arizona’s foster care program.
Our
financial situation has been very tight every since last August when
my husband lost his high paying construction job. Since that time
we have utilized Jose’s Closet on many occasions to help cloth our
children. We have gotten winter clothes last year when a few of my
son’s out grew their pants, some Halloween costumes, so that we were
able to go trick or treating, clothing and items for our baby. Also
we were given brand new shoes so that my children will be able to
start the school year off with something nice on their feet.
We are
very thankful for Wendy and Jose’s Closet and am hopeful that this
valuable resource will continue to be available for us and all the
other families that are caring for Arizona’s needy children.
Thank
you for your time,
April
