Ruth Verrinder, a member of Love Southend’s Servant Team, discovered that Helen Yousaf, worship leader and artist, had created some appreciation cards for NHS and other front-line workers and a ‘Hope’ pack of pictures for hospitals. On behalf of Love Southend Ruth obtained some cards and had a picture pack delivered to Southend Hospital. 33 cards were sent to individual front-line workers and a Christian member of staff at the hospital received and distributed the pictures. We have had messages of heartfelt thanks from people receiving the cards and the staff member at the hospital said ‘I just wanted to thank you and everyone at Love Southend for reaching out to our Southend hospital staff… Staff were blessed to know even their families were being prayed for. The ‘Joy comes in the morning’ was one that brought big smiles and hope. The ‘Come to me’ one was loved most and I sent a few people the video of Helen painting and they were so blessed.These are just a few examples.’ Further information about Helen’s artwork can be found here https://www.facebook.com/helenyousaf.co.uk/
