It’s Advent and the time of year of giving when Love Southend seeks to encourage our emergency services with a letter of thanks and a token gift.
Over 40 packs of sweets/biscuits were distributed and gratefully received. We have also sent emails to some senior police officers and thought you might like to read some of the responses.
From a senior police officer:
“Thank you and wishing you, your family and all at Love Southend a happy and peaceful Christmas.“
“Thank you for your kind letter and words of support (along with the sweets!).
Many thanks, Kind regards Southend CPT”
“On behalf of Southend CID I just wanted to say a quick thank you for the attached letter, I have cc’d in our department so that everyone has a chance to see it. Thank you also for the treats, which the team made light work of!
The entire year seems to have been very busy, we have been working hard and will continue to do so; thank you also from all of us for the work you do to help others. Kind regards”
From a GP
“Thank you for all your prayers for us all!
Only saw this today (the letter) in the kitchen stuck on a cupboard… I’m so glad it’s been put there for everyone to see! Thank you so much for sending it and proclaiming the Lord’s name 🙏🏾🙏🏾 💕💕”
We pray from the words of Psalm 34:8 that all our emergency service workers will ‘Taste and see that the Lord is good; and take refuge in him this Advent’.
