Pennies for Puppies

A few months ago we were blessed to have Sue Thomas - former SPY and FBI agent come and visit our restaurant.  She loved our fresh cut french fries and experienced her first ever Bison burger, which I am guessing she also loved since she ordered one to go for later.  Sue was in town to speak at Richfield Mennonite Church about her ministry.

Despite dealing with the challenges of being profoundly deaf and having Multiple Sclerosis, Sue does not miss a beat!  She is one of the most joy-filled people I have met over the years.  Her sense of humor and love for life is only out-weighed by her joy for the Lord and sharing His love to people all over the world.

Her passion to love people in the name of Christ has led her to begin a new two fold ministry in CT.  The first part of the ministry is a retreat center for leaders to come and enjoy time away in silent reflection.  The second part of the ministry is what I would like you to consider being a part of as a Cruiser's customer and that is Pennies for Puppies - a fundraising initiative for the ministry called Kennels of Levi.

Kennels of Levi is a ministry to help train service dogs to assist in daily living for people with disabilities.  Sue has been blessed over the years to have service dog companions that have assisted her with both her hearing loss and her MS issues.  Having a dog that can serve multi-disabilities is hard to come by and that will be one of the training missions of the kennel facilities.   The cost for training service dogs is very expensive, but you can you make a difference just by dropping a few pennies or other coins in the can that is located by the register at Cruisers.

Thank you for your investment in this life changing ministry!  For more information about Sue Thomas and her ministry check out  http://suethomasproductions.com/thedream.aspx
