Well Aunt Verna has the right idea!  She's stayin' put through this ordeal we are all going through.  However, she does have some unique ways to spend her time, while she is sheltered-at-home.  In case you missed it, here's her phone call from this morning's #KiTC Morning Show!

 

I had an opportunity to talk with Pastor Melissa McKinnies from Southern Illinois Worship Center on today's #KiTC Morning Show about something GOOD!  In my never-ending search to "Broadcast the Good", I'm always looking for cool things happening in the community!  This year, Easter is lookin' a little different.  No Easter Egg hunts with the kiddos. (Bummer) So, the folks at Southern Illinois Worship Center teamed up with Senator Dale Fowler and the Fowler-Bonan Foundation with local businesses to create an Easter "Goodie-Bag" with a coloring book, new crayons, free ice cream, and more!  These bags were distributed to the Harrisburg, Carterville, and Cairo school districts earlier this week.  There will also be a pick-up location at Southside Lumber in Herrin starting today through Saturday while supplies last.  (Only go out on an essential run) And, don't miss our Rise Above It Community Easter Service on the radio, and online, this Easter Sunday morning at 7AM!

It's our Campaign for Kindness!  Today, we send a salute to Val Hodges in Harrisburg.  Here's the letter we received about Val, and the work she's doing to keep school kids fed with nutritious food!

"Val Hodges runs Harrisburg's food program at our school district. She spends countless hours that no one even knows about getting things done behind the scenes for our food that goes out every week.

We send out 13,000 meals every week. Every bag has 5 breakfast items & 5 lunch items.

It's a team of us that do it every week. On Fridays, a team of 25 meet and fill the shelf-stable bags. On Mondays, another team goes to 9 sites to deliver. On the days in between, Val and the cooks work to get the fresh vegetables ready and the frozen items bagged up.

This is a picture of Val's facebook post today. The kitchen staff is getting thousands of veggies washed up and bagged for next Monday's distribution."

If you know someone who's doing something kind for others, let us know!  CLICK HERE and fill out the form at the bottom of the page!  Takes about 60 seconds!  Thank you, and let's continue to Broadcast the Good!
