Welcome to the Victory Blog

Because of your generosity in giving to the iCare campaign, we recently gave a donation in the amount of $25,ooo to the Norcross Co-op, one of our close partners in local ministry. They were truly grateful. Executive Director Shirley Cabe expressed that gratitude in the following letter, which is addressed to you:

Dear Pastors, leaders and members of Victory World Church:

On behalf of the Norcross Cooperative Ministry Board of Directors, staff, volunteers and clients, thank you so much for your recent donation of $25,000 from the iCare offering. This awesome blessing will help many families in our community who are struggling to make ends meet.

Over the last few months, we have experienced a 30% increase in the number of our client visits. Gwinnett County has just released eviction/foreclosure numbers for 2008 = 37,983 families. Currently we are serving over 1,100 families per month. Many of these families have never come to us for help before. Your donation will be used to help these families with basic needs: food, help with utility bill payments, rental assistance and temporary lodging for our homeless families with children.

Thank you again for your donation and your continued support of the outreach and ministries of Norcross Cooperative Ministry. Please continue to pray for our clients, this community and the staff and volunteers of Norcross Co-op. Working together we can transform this community, one family at a time.

In Christ,

Shirley Cabe
