Our Army son, was stationed overseas

...a spring morning of 2002 brought his request for our family "Care Box" tradition of home baked cookies, only now for his fellow Soldiers.  My heart would break as he would so very often comment how so many others did not receive the caring and support from home.  His boxes would be received and the sharing began for those he served with!  I approached the ladies from our Church Group along with my friends asking if they would assist in baking to ship to our Troops overseas. They immediately responded!  This was the beginning of OPERATION:  MOM'S COOKIES!  An outreach of support became a Vision and is today our Mission!
