This Thanksgiving we are thankful for you!

November 23, 2011

To all of our servants, our clients and those who support Beyond Horizons financially the Board of Directors would like to say THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts!!!  It is absolutely AMAZING to see what God has been doing through your faithfulness!  There are so many stories from both clients and from servants whose lives have been touched by the love and kindness that has been shown in Jesus name and we look forward to sharing those stories with you more in the months to come.  So on this Thanksgiving weekend we want you to know that we are so thankful for your participation in our ministry and we look forward to partnering with you even more in the coming year to show the love of Jesus to those in need in our community.

In case you missed it, here is a link to a video that highlights one of stories we have encountered this year:

So for all your hard work, we want you to just imagine Jesus saying to you on this Thanksgiving . . .

“Well done my good and faithful servant!  [Matthew 25:21]  For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.”  And you might say “Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink?  And we did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you?  And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?”

And the King will answer you . . .

“Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these (in Anoka County) my brothers and sisters, you did it to me!”  [Matthew 25:35-40]

Thank you so much and may God bless you and your family on this Thanksgiving day!  We have so much to be grateful for!

Warmest Regards,

Brian Bovee, Julie Clarke & the Beyond Horizons Board of Directors

You guys will never know how much your help has meant to me.  You  helped me move, clean out my apartment,  get through my inspection and get my security deposit back.  You went above and beyond the move!  You have also provided me with someone to come in and do some light cleaning and change my bedding.  Then a year later I was struck with cancer and you helped me get through the worst part of that by providing me with transportation to my 33 treatments.  Every person I have been in contact with from your organization has been very caring and encouraging.  You have no idea how scary it is to be disabled and not have transportation.  I have felt a huge loss of independence and it has left me very vulnerable. You have made such a difference in my life and for that I thank you! ~ Pat

Thank you Beyond Horizons.

Hello! I can’t thank you enough for all of the help you have given my mom and Charlie. They would have been lost if God hadn’t brought you to them! They have been through a lot and they deserve to have a nice life, thank you so much for helping to make that possible! Please let me know of there is anything I can do to help your organization reach out to more people. I don’t have much I can give but I am a Nurse so maybe I could provide respite for a parent or spouse of someone with medical needs. I thank you again and thank God for bringing you to my family. God bless! ~ Heidi

Thanks to all who came out for our “Whiteout Opportunity” where we helped pack meals for starving children around the world!  During the 7-9pm shift 163 boxes were packed which breaks down to 35,208 meals or feeding 97 children for an entire year.
