WHAT CAN GOD DO WITH A WOMAN LIKE HER?

How have three little gold angels, hands intertwined, teamed up to provide comfort to cancer patients worldwide? Ask Patricia Gallagher who began the SEND A TEAM OF ANGELS TO HELP MOVEMENT. She did not plan to bring a message of hope to those facing adversity, nor to distribute 78,500 of her little angels. She never expected to receive 30,000 letters from grateful recipients. When her father was diagnosed with throat cancer and spent lots of time in hospitals, she penned a poem to help him. She attached a team of angels lapel pin that she created to the poem
A TEAM OF ANGELS FOR SERIOUS ILLNESS.
Lord, please send celestial melodies
And healing whispers too
I need a Team of Angels
For what I’m going through.

I’ll trust them to surround me
To uplift, console, caress
And carry all my fears
On wings of tenderness.

Gallagher herself knew what anxious waiting in doctors’ offices was like. She had her share of personal problems in recent years. “Sometimes it is the little things that can make you feel better: the kind gesture of a stranger, random acts of kindness and the three little angels.” The Team of Angels Foundation, Inc. was formed to continue the work that started in 1999 as “mom’s little angel pin project.” For information and to order a pin, please visit www.teamofangels.com, or send $5.00 to Team of Angels Foundation, Box 561, Worcester, PA 19490, 215-272-1933.
