🚨 INTRODUCING BULLOCK’S FIRST ANNUAL RIPPLE OF GRACE 🙏🏾

PLEASE COMMENT, LIKE, & SHARE ‼️

Not every good deed makes the news — but it can make a ripple. 💛

We created Ripple of Grace so YOU can drop the names of people in our community who’ve done something good and never got the credit they deserve — or share a kind act you’ve done that made a difference. Let’s give flowers to those who move with grace, even when no one’s watching. 🌸

And as a little bonus to keep the ripple flowing — starting November 15th, envelopes filled with words of encouragement will be placed around St. Joseph. Each one holds a message of hope, and five special envelopes will include a Golden Ticket redeemable for a $40 Hy-Vee gift card! 🎫

So drop a name, share a story, and keep your eyes open — because when grace flows, it ripples. 🌊
