November 2023 served as the launching date for Sabina Angels with a website and Facebook page being created to help with communication. The idea for the group was born from seeing so many needs in the Sabina community and a desire to do something to try to help. Sabina Angels has no funds and doesn’t plan on accepting any monetary donations or publicly recruiting members. We are not associated with any church, business or other local organization. Rather, we look for small ways that we can as individuals try to make a difference. Many people refer to such actions as Random Acts of Kindness. It is also hoped that others living in the Sabina community might be inspired through these actions to join in as a “Sabina Angel” to spread compassion to others and work together to make the community a place that we can all love.
During the first month of operation for Sabina Angels, the following events were accomplished:
- Bags of coins were randomly placed near copiers, vending machines, and laundromat washers in the Sabina community
- Bags of encouragment were left in random locations for people to find
- The Sabina Blessing Box located on the side of the municipal building was filled
- Items were purchased to create some Christmas bags for others
- Created and shared a November calendar page with ideas for Random Acts of Kindness
- A Christmas Challenge has been issued to others
It’s exciting to see what Sabina Angels will be able to do in 2024 as more ideas are implemented. Remember that kindness can make a difference.
“Christ has no body now on earth but yours, no hands, no feet but yours. Yours are the eyes with which Christ looks out his compassion to the world. Yours are the feet with which he is to go about doing good. Yours are the hands with which he is to bless us now.” –Saint Teresa of Avila
