“I thank God every day for letting me live here. I’m being fed, and I got a roof over my head. I don’t worry about anything. Well…hardly ever.
I was so reluctant at first to share my story. But, why not? It’s just another step in life.
We have given and done for people all our lives. But it’s different when it comes to it given for yourself.
I love the Lord, and I can feel His many blessings surrounding us here. I feel so protected and cared for.”
~ Barbara Freerksen, age 89
While the PMMA policy assures privacy to recipients of the Good Samaritan Program, Barbara has allowed us to share her story so others might understand what the program means to residents who depend on it to remain in their homes.
