A TEAM OF ANGELS TO THE RESCUE

Do you need hope? Patricia Gallagher can help. When she experienced a serious health issue in her own family, she felt that she really needed a team of angels to help. “I felt like I was at the end of my rope!” she said. She fashioned a little angel pin from craft supplies for herself, bearing three gold angels, wings intertwined…. I called it my ‘team of angels.”’ She attached the pin to a poem of encouragement she wrote, initially to comfort her own family. Thinking other people might also need a tangible sign of support, she made them by the thousands and passed hope along to others. This is what she wrote.
A TEAM OF ANGELS FOR HOPE
In the medley of life
I feel up and down
Please send a team of angels
To “glow” blessings around.

In the shadow of a crisis
When I feel fear or despair
They’ll bring a message of hope
And I’ll know they are there.

She spread her words of encouragement throughout her community by donating 5000 pins to local hospitals and support groups. She even left a basket of pins on her porch so that anyone who needed hope could stop by and take one. Patricia has written 12 poems and “mom’s little angel pin project” has distributed 78,500 pins. Her efforts have turned into the TEAM OF ANGELS FOUNDATION, INC. If you would like to order a pin, attached to a bookmark bearing the poem, for yourself or someone who needs a lift, send $5 to: Team of Angels Foundation, Inc., Box 561, Worcester, PA 19490 or visit www.teamofangels.com.
