This event will bring the joy and Hope for the Henson children and their parents. It will also bring the love of humanity in our communities together.

I like to give a huge Thank you! to the hundreds of people sending beautiful messages, reaching out,
Showing their love, and helping.

This was a tragedy that has impacted the people in our communities and even people from out of state… A tragedy that has no words on how to express the pain and suffering the Henson’s have endured.
This tragedy has hit my heart and I needed to do something to help. The Henson’s are my naighbors whom just moved recently to their home.
I met them on the day this tragedy occurred.
I rush next door and it was like the saddest seen ive ever witness. I grabbed our new baby lamb and let the children hold it, for comfort.
I was holding back my tears and trying to breath as i seen the pain in their little eyes of the children. I talked to the children and promise that things will get better starting tomorrow . I had no idea what i was talking about, but i knew i needed to say something to give them hope. I knew also that God has control of what was happening.
The children became calm as they held the baby lamb.
I had to do more.
The event is in dedication to this family that lost everything including their pets. 😥

Its wonderful to see that we can all make a difference to help them rebuild their lives.

We hope to see everyone there to help, love, aid, give, and support this sweet family.

We will have a truck on site to load and deliver all items to their storage unit.

Food, refreshments, snacks are provided by our friends in our communities.

Entry for the event is free, the cost for the Petting zoo area is 5.00 All proceeds, funds and items will go directly to the Henson family.

This is a family friendly event to open our hearts and help this family who are broken hearted.

The Henson’s will be there.
Also “Zippy” the baby zebra will be there for the first time to meet and greet everyone!
Including all the animals from Jackson farm Mobile Petting zoo.

Thank you all for your love and support for this sweet family.

Please continue praying for the Henson family as each day may seem for ever to heal their broken hearts, suffering and have a normal life again.

We thank God for saving them and for all the people that will help. ❤
