Valentine's Day 2017: Feel the love!

Who among us wouldn't rather receive a gift of warm, homemade cookies over a box of store-bought ones?  

There's just something about a handmade gift that says, 

"You are special; 
You are loved; 
You deserve my time and attention."

That's why we give a handmade quilt to every warrior family that stays at The Warrior Retreat at Bull Run. It is a warm reminder of SOWW'S "Home Away From Home" that they can take with them once their stay is over.


We have seen firsthand what these quilts have meant to our Warriors 
and the strong emotions that they have evoked.

This Valentine's Day, we wanted to say a big 
"Thanks!!!" 
to the incredible quilters who donate their time, talent, and awesome quilts to the Willing Warriors + Their Families during their stays at The Warrior Retreat at Bull Run.

Your gifts are "love made tangible".
Everyone at Serve Our Willing Warriors salutes you 
for providing such a thoughtful way for our Warriors to 
"Feel the Love"!


A Valentine's Day Thought:

Life is less a Quest than a Quilt.
We find Meaning, Love and Prosperity through the Process of
Stitching Together our Bold Attempts 
to Help Others Find Their Own Way in Their Lives.
