It's Valentine's Day, so let's get right to the heart of the matter:
Every Day is Valentine's Day at Serve Our Willing Warriors!
At SOWW, we are so blessed because we get to witness Love in Action every single day!
What we regularly observe isn't the traditional gift of flowers and a box of chocolates.
(Although we really, really like flowers and chocolate!)
Instead, we have the privilege of witnessing all manner of different expressions of love that come gift wrapped in the time, talents and donations of our community of volunteers.
(On a DAILY basis!)
So here is our version of a Valentine's Day card:
THIS is what Love looks like at Serve Our Willing Warriors.
Sometimes Love Looks Like . . .
