Praise God!  Terry Starr has accepted the position to be God's Hygiene Executive Director!  She has not only the heart, but extensive administrative skills, and had the vision to realize that GHHC needs a business plan as well as someone as "Driver of the Bus" as God has directed  this ministry to keep growing.  Terry encouraged all the board members to set goals for our nonprofit which are specific, manageable, tangible and time bound.  Most important is to keep searching for a store front in the north Linden community, so the Help Center is no longer located in Tammy's home.  Congratulations and thank you Terry for being willing to step up to lead God's Hygiene in 2020.  If you have ideas to share you can reach Terry at godshygieneED@gmail.com .

How do you accept salvation? You turn away from yourself and toward God. You trust Christ to come into your life, forgive your sins, and make you who he wants you to be.  If you want to start your new year by accepting God’s salvation, you can pray something like this:

Lord Jesus, I want to know you personally. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins. I open the door of my life and receive you as my Savior and Lord. Thank you for forgiving me of my sins and giving me eternal life. Take control of my life. Make me the kind of person you want me to be. Amen.
​
Saying yes to salvation is the best way to start the new year.  “Not to decide is to decide.”
When you say, “Not yet,” you’re actually saying no to Christ. The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 6:2, “Right now God is ready to welcome you. Today he is ready to save you” (TLB).
​

Our hearts went out to Tammy's brother Ross and his wife Julia on Christmas night.  They came home from dinner to find their house on fire.  Evidently it started in the stove whether an old 22 year old stove or a burner.  Thankfully they are covered by homeowners' insurance.  However, Ross was overwhelmed with scammers.  A  restoration team took him for $16,000 to freshen all his clothes and televisions. They left them with no change of clothes.  It was devastating.   They left them with nothing.  Afterwards he realized he could have bought all new clothes and more for $10,000.  

God's Hygiene helped them by giving them 2 towel sets, pajamas, underwear, socks, and more.  It was such a comfort to Julia just to have some basic hygiene items.  Tammy cooked dinner for them for several days.Julia posted on Facebook, "I should have posted this days ago but we have been overwhelmed with investigators and ambulance chasers and the aftermath of the fire. Thank You Tammy Jewell and Gods Hygiene Help Center. Something as simple as being clean and in fresh jammies was definitely a Godsend."

“Do not withhold good from those who deserve it when it’s in your power to help them” (Proverbs 3:27 NLT).

Ecclesiastes 11:4, “If you wait for perfect conditions, you will never get anything done”(TLB).

Last month we worked a lot with The Bed Brigade and Immaculate Conception.  We were able to refer several families to have beds built and delivered with all the linens.  They also received boxes of food and prayer when they had nothing.  Through all of this we know that people will see Jesus' love.
Lamentations 3:22-24. The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in him.”

January 3  morning Tammy had an experience with Jesus.  He said you need to exercise your spirit the same way you exercise your body.  It will give you much joy to become personal and intimate with Jesus.  It will open all doors that need to be opened.  Jesus will command those doors to be open and nothing will shut the doors on us.  Tammy will be protected from any harm.  To begin with, be quiet and be with me 3 times a week then every day.  I am happiness, peace, joy and your rush.

Last night Ann called about a young woman with 5 kids who had been homeless.  This 25 year old has moved into a place at Mt. Vernon Plaza.  She hoped she could get a Clean Start Basket.  God's Hygiene will but we cannot afford to give her 5 sets of new towels.  

​

Whetstone Gardens and Care Center is where advisor Harley Bratton spent his last few months.   We recently picked up his portable  refrigerator and walker; Ross is so grateful to use this refrigerator.   Their housing supervisor has given GHHC 16 twin blankets and bedspreads.  We were able to give 2 to a foster parent at IGA for her foster children and 10 to the new Huckleberry House on 11th Avenue. 

The Holy Spirit led Tammy to IGA, not to grocery shop, but to reach out to the deli workers for the their needs in her community.  When Tammy walked into the store, she saw a little woman who looked to be about 90 years old.  She was leaning on her shopping cart afraid to let go and her elderly husband could not hold her up.  Tammy immediately thought about the shiny red walker which had belonged to Harley and went out to retrieve it from "Mercy."  The woman cried when she saw it because she had been praying for help to get around.  Praise that Tammy does hear from the Spirit, listens and obeys.
In John 9:4, Jesus says, “All of us must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent me, for there is little time left before the night falls and all work comes to an end” (TLB).
​

Miss My's Hair & NaIl Beauty Salon, 1465 East Livingston Avenue, is hosted their 1st Community Giveaway on January 26.  They heard about the good work which God's Hygiene Help Center does.  So they came to Tammy's front door to ask for donations.  Our supporters are so generous giving us lots of sample sizes of shampoo, lotion and more.  GHHC was able to give Miss My a huge bag of items so they could pack their own Blessing Bags to give out.
Crystal Anderson delivered a small space heater to a Linden senior citizen in need with a blanket and some love. GHHC where love wins!
​
​

And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.  Hebrews 13:16 NIV

When Tammy and Crystal held a resource table at Windsor STEM Academy for Parent Teacher Conferences, they were approached by the principal, counselor and teachers.  "We have a number of special needs children who need coats."  Tammy replied, "God's Hygiene only provides hats, gloves, scarves and socks."  Then Crystal interrupted, "Excuse me, I have the resources to get coats from the Free Store. How many do you need?"  The principal said, "As many as possible but at least 15.   We actually have 3 homeless families living in their cars."  So they offered them resources for housing, hygiene plus blankets, hats and gloves.  On December  9 Crystal and Tammy will be delivering 20 hats and gloves along with 15 warm coats.

The Columbus Police came and picked up more donated coats, 10 pairs of socks, scarves with gloves attached and gave them out to the homeless on the streets. Every week our officer gives out about 6 coats--some are for adults, other ones for children.  God knows what we need and our supporters donate them at the right time. This officer is going and beyond her job--doing wellness checks, online shopping for underprivileged kids in neighborhood, and making sure families have some basic needs met.   One family has 4 beds in one room and won't let us in to see their poor living condition.
​

Thank you for sharing your blessings!  You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.  2 Corinthians 9:11 NIV
​
Tammy was so happy when we saw on the news that a woman was opening a free Community Blessing Store in a small Linden market at the Come & Go Center, 884 Oakland Park.  Diane, Tammy and 2 of her volunteers visited that Monday to congratulate Eliza and donate Harley's clothes to her.  The free store is open Mondays and Wednesdays 12 - 3 pm.  But since another business also uses the same space, Eliza and her husband have to take all the donations back home each time.  
God's Hygiene has been searching for a warehouse in the Linden community.  Even though Tammy has been friends with the store owner for years, it would not work out for God's Hygiene.  (1) We could not give away. hygiene if the store is selling the same items. (2) There is no place to lock up our donated  products.  

Paul Sparks of Embark program, had just returned from a 10 day adventure in Israel.  But he made time to pick up this huge Clean Start Basket for a newly released man, pictured on the right.  God's Hygiene is glad to help people given a 2nd chance.
Robin Lorms called with a special request.  He was helping a mother with 3 children who lives in Circleville.  Even though Tammy had vertigo, she packed a basket for her including stuffed animals for the kids, pots and pans, dishes, silverware and blankets.  The Mom cried when she saw all the gifts.  We are glad to work together with Embark/Kindway be the hands and feet of Jesus.
The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.  Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.  Psalm 9:9-10  (NIV)

This work had been done with the help of our God. Nehemiah 6:16

Thank you for listening when you get a nudge from God to donate something.  A church member asked, "Does Tammy need a Christmas tree?"  I replied, "She has one.  But I'm sure she knows of a family who does need it."  Sure enough.  A family which Officer Alesia and Tammy had helped just a week before was chosen.  When Freddie delivered the tree that week, they cried.  "My kids kept asking for a Christmas tree. I told my kids that I didn't have any money to get a Christmas tree this year.  It's a miracle.  Here you are with a tree for us!  Thank you.
Another family of 8 had absolutely nothing.  God's Hygiene was able to help with basic hygiene items, blankets, and towels.  But they had no food.  Thanks to ICC, we could ask them to deliver an emergency food box.  When they did, they saw no furniture in the home.  ICC has the resources to request furniture for them.  So glad we can work together with other community resources to provide help to those in need.

Thank you to Karen Espe who applied for a Thrivent Action Team project plus recruited 25 families to donate hygiene items.  With the $250 grant from Thrivent and  other donations she was able to collect  7 clothes baskets worth of items.  Thank you so much!  
If you are a Thrivent member, are you aware that you can donate your CHOICE Dollars to God's Hygiene Help Center at no cost to you plus you can apply for two Thrivent Action Team projects a year.  That is how God's Hygiene first started receiving other donations.  Questions?  Contact Diane at godshygiene@gmail.com or 614-329-4661.

Thank you to UALC for donating the Bibles which were previously in the Sanctuary.  On December 22, a volunteer named Mrs. Chambers picked up the remaining 100 Bibles.  Pastor Betty of Oakland Park Apartments is planning to wrap them up and give to neighbor kids for Christmas. What a great idea!   Betty used to pastor a church in her previous city until God told her to move to Columbus.  We feel blessed that we get to be a small part of blessing others.


​Philippians 4:6 | “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”

This month we have been focusing on Project Warm.  We will continue to collect gently used coats for all ages, socks, hats, gloves, scarves and blankets.  Thank you to the creative people who have donated with love hand crocheted beautiful scarves, hats and gloves.  Your gift makes a child feel so special and warm!

We are in awe whenever Tammy shares with us.  "God is talking to me.  I sometimes think I am not enough, but GOD Himself told me. 'I have you where I want you.  Stay on the path my child!!.  Stay close with me and listen. I will lead you and I will send earth angels.  I am the Great I AM!" 

The Barack Community Center held their Thanksgiving event on November 21.  Over 400 people attended and were fed a turkey dinner.  Ann Glover, Barack Help Center coordinator, set out much needed donations of hats, scarves, and skin care products.  In one minute they were all gone.  These people must really be in need.
God's Hygiene helps support the Douglas Community Center Applications for Purpose, Pride and Success (APPS) program.  What is APPS? The mission of the APPS program is to reduce crime and violence by increasing protective factors in the lives of Columbus youth and young adults (ages 14-23) through proven prevention and intervention strategies. The initiative’s prevention strategies include offering safe and constructive alternatives to violence while youth development professionals provide mentorship through enrichment activities at four community recreation centers. "The diligent mentors are able to assess individual and family needs while being an ongoing advocate to insure that a young person and their family are linked to services that meet immediate needs while providing long term support services for future goal attainment, which ultimately produces productive contributing members of society.
Thank you to volunteer Crystal Anderson who has reorganized the shelves of stock at both Douglas and Barack Centers to make it easier to inventory every week what stock has been given out and what is needed.
God's Hygiene also provides items for the W. H. Adams Community Center.  Mario Dovell, Adams Manager, comes himself to the Douglas Center to get need hygiene items for teenagers and seniors in need.  

Did you know that our Columbus police officers drive around their community doing wellness checks on seniors?  We work with a wonderful liaison officer in the Linden area and provide adult diapers and other hygiene products to the Substation on 11th Avenue.  
​We heard about a family in an emergency and great need.  A mother of three is in intensive care.  The father shot the mother in the chest and she is not expected to survive.  There are two girls and a boy who will not have a home, a family and in need of everything.  All their belongings were destroyed  and since no relatives, they have been placed in foster care.  God's Hygiene was able to give them backpacks, their own blankets, hats, gloves, socks, underwear, Purse of Love,  basic hygiene and of course, prayers.
Lola is a 95 year old woman who lives alone in a place off Cleveland Avenue.  When they visited, her toes were sticking out of her socks.  Senior Options had not been out to give her a bath.  God's Hygiene was able to provide her with adult diapers, 3 sweaters, socks and much needed food.
The officer pulled up on a 10 year old girl.  She asked about her grades and found out her family is living in a one room apartment with wall to wall beds.  They received blankets, hats, gloves and put on a special Christmas list.
They drove down Hudson and saw a working girl--she needs to buy formula for her baby so was not arrested.  We gave her a bag pf hygiene, gloves, hat and scarf to keep warm.  
We also gave our officer extra blankets, hats and scarves to give soothers in the community.

On November 7 three kids received coats which were donated to God's Hygiene.  A Purse of Love was given to a working girl on Cleveland Avenue.  Two Blessing Bags were handed out at Planet Fitness on Indianola where Tammy works out.  Mr. and Mrs. Barnes were featured in a video how God's Hygiene has made a difference in their lives the past four years.  They were able to take home the extra food prepared for our lunch that day.   So they dropped off a thank you card to Tammy.  She opened the envelope and exclaimed "Oh no!  There is a bed bug inside!"  Tammy smashed it right away, but fearful that clients coming to  her Howey Road help center for products could unknowingly infest her home.  Tammy cannot afford to have her own home infested with the bugs.  Working with those without basic hygiene can be so sad.  But God lifts them up.  We will contact all our resources to see if we can get them help to treat the bedbugs in their house.  On Sunday, November 24 when the video was shown at Upper Arlington Lutheran Church, Mrs. Barnes was in OSU Hospital with a blood infection.  We do not know if that is a result of the bugs.

Tammy and volunteer Crystal Anderson have been attending Alpha on Monday evenings at UALC at Mill Run.  They absolutely love it and are getting a lot of their questions answered.  They plan to encourage everyone to register for the new January 2020 session.  Any questions, see Alan Starr.

Paul wrote, “Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand” (Philippians 4:6-7 NLT).

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.
⁠—2 Corinthians 1:3-4
​The police were called to a home on Pontiac to evict a family for nonpayment of rent. A grandmother answered the door--there was no furniture, no utilities, and no food.  Next to the grandmother was her severely disabled teenage granddaughter drinking from a baby bottle.  Our officer liaison immediately contacted Tammy to get them some help.  God's Hygiene reached out to our advisor Jim at Immaculate Conception for a box of food.  Tammy delivered needed hygiene and blankets.  We wish this story had a happy ending but several weeks later she called us to pick up the donated items because they really had to leave.

God's Hygiene Help Center is honored that we are one of three missions chosen by UALC to create a video about how our ministry has made a difference in the life of a client.  That was easy for Tammy--she chose her senior client  Mrs. Diane Barnes and her family.  Grace and Peace Productions put everyone at ease when they came to Tammy's home and interviewed Mrs. Barnes, Kevin who helps Mrs. Barnes, and Tammy.  Since meeting Tammy 4 1/2 years ago, Mrs. Barnes has lost 80 pounds, is able to walk, has made about 500 yarn bracelets to give to the kids at events, and shares assistance resources  with Tammy.

 Helping Hands Health and Wellness Center is a community, faith based, free medical clinic that serves uninsured and underinsured adults whose income is below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines.​TB Skin Testing Program: Tuesdays from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm​​ Free Care Program:Thursdays, doors open at 2:00 pm​​ During our Free Care Program, we offer free physician care and free social services care.  We also offer work and/or school physicals during the Free Care Program. Bring the work and/or school physical form that needs to be completed.  Our Free Care Program is walk-in only and our doors open at 2:00 pm to begin sign-ins. We do not have scheduled appointments. Our services are offered on a “first come first served” basis. We accept patients until we reach our capacity. It is recommended that patients arrive when the doors first open.  There is no cost to be seen during the Free Care Program.  We do not serve individuals under age 18.​  OUR LOCATION:  Helping Hands Health and Wellness Center, 5100 Karl Road, Columbus, Ohio 43229.  God's Hygiene participated in the 11th annual Bowl to Help fundraiser for this Free Clinic.  We wanted to support both our advisor, Dr. Nancy Gatto Henceforth and the clinic where we are now referring clients.

Afraid and lost, a 21 year old mother came to Tammy's home.  She had 3 young kids and a black eye.  Her boyfriend or babies' daddy is on drugs.  "He beats me and beats the kids.  I don't know where to go.  We have a small dog, too."  Tammy told her all about Choices, how she can keep her kids safe and together with her.  Pets are also now allowed.  God is so good.  Tammy gave her ore resources and hygiene.  She cried and thanked Tammy.  But she couldn't  let her leave without first string about God.  They hugged and Tammy told her about God and how He loves her and the kids.  Just know that GOD is real!  And He is your Father!
There are homeless people on Howey Road, Tammy's street!  Two men and two young women are on drugs.  God's Hygiene gave them a bag of dry food, 2 pillows, 2 sheets, blanket, 4 sets of gloves, toothpaste, toothbrushes and a rain coat big enough for two people.  Great timing and God's mercy because the next day it rained hard all day!
This month we helped 3 senior families with food.  To the schools we delivered 200 deodorants, 250 pads and 50 tampons.
A young woman we have known reached out to Tammy for help 2 days before she is to be evict4ed.   Each day 75 families are evicted in Columbus !  Tammy talked to her on the phone and shared resources--go to the welfare office, contact IMPACT, call Job and Family Services, tell the judge in court about the poor conditions in your one room apartment--the bed bugs, roaches, and holes.  Tammy can only do so much as one person.  People need to learn how to use the resources available.

Tammy saw an old friend who had just been released from federal prison.  His wife of 31 years had left him and pregnant with someone else's baby.  His 18 children (from 5 different mothers) hated him.  He had not met his grandchildren.  He felt alone and of no use. He prepared to kill himself.  
In prison he got clean and found God.   He wasn't going to go back to drugs, but he did not know where to go.  As a former member of the Short North Posse, he didn't know anyone in the outside world who knew God. Tammy and the man talked.   Then he heard and saw how Tammy had turned her life around and was helping the community.  She recruited him to help God's Hygiene and to take God back into his life.  Now he knows he is not alone, is loved, and still useful.  The man is so excited that he is considering attending both Alpha and church this week.  Praise God! 

This month we built baskets for 3 different organizations.  Tammy and Julia Jewell built 3 baskets for Suicide Prevention for an American Legion event.  Thank you to Kathryn Farrar and her grandchildren, who are God's youngest Hygiene Helpers! for creating four baskets  for Kindway/Embark.  We participated in our first fundraiser on September 12 and we donated baskets for the Thrivent Mystery Dinner/Silent Auction.  Tammy packed an OSU Tailgate Basket which included breakfast at Denny's, Late Night Slice pizza, Noodles, OSU ice bucket, and so much more.  Thank you to Board Member Terry Starr for creating a second "Personal Comfort" basket to donate to the Thrivent Silent Auction.  Moo Moo Car Wash donated a third basket on our behalf which received the most bids!
Thank you to our team of supporters and donors who attended and bid on the Silent Auction items.  It was such a fun evening.  Photos have been posted on our Facebook page.
A basket was also given to a woman and her 17 year old son who are starting over.  With God's love and donations we have received, we could help her with blankets, dishes, pan, and towels.    
​Let us not grow weary or become discouraged in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap, if we do not give in. Galatians 6:9 Amplified Bible (AMP) 

Terry Starr saw this message:  "Hi UA Friends, I recently became aware of a young Columbus mother who has faced some mighty struggles, and could really use our help. Her name is Biancamya Griffin, and I’ll try to give you a quick synopsis of her story. Bianca moved here from Flint, MI six years ago. She has three young children. On February 16, 2019, Bianca’s (now ex-boyfriend) was watching her youngest, KenKen, who is 4. It is hard to even write this, but the man held this sweet little boy (who has learning delays) down in a bathtub of scalding water. He was critically injured. KenKen has had 6-7 surgeries already and is facing at least two more. The monster who did this is in custody awaiting trial. 
I first became aware of her story as it was told by a wonderful Columbus police officer, who spends his time in some of our city’s worst neighborhoods connecting with kids, while sometimes putting out the call for help. So, Bianca has just moved from the south end to the Milo Grogan neighborhood. Ken was afraid to ever go into the bathroom (at the old house)for obvious reasons, and the area was riddled with crime and drugs. Bianca works hard as a contract employee for Southwest Airlines (they bought Ken’s wheelchair!), but she could really use some help furnishing the new place. I was there this morning, and it is truly a humble home, yet Bianca is thrilled. I have taken care of new kitchen items, but there is more she can use. The living room needs furniture, and she needs a dining table. There is room in the kitchen for a tiny dinette set too. She has beds, but could use dressers or even Rubbermaid type drawer units. While the apt is far from being remodeled, she is living there. Her landlord will adjust her rent if any sweat equity helps complete a project-there is a lot of painting to be done.
If you have it in your heart to help this young family, please let me know. I’m going to post screenshots of her FB page dedicated to her son, and that of Officer Johnson-since this is a closed group. Thank you very much for reading and offering any assistance!”

They have had a lot of responses with help for furniture and other household items. She needs help with hygiene products. Can we please help?
​Of course Tammy said YES and started packing.  When the young mother said she didn't even have a fork, God's Hygiene gave her dishes, cereal bowls, silverware and a new skillet.  When Biancamya came to pick up the basket plus items, she just cried and was so appreciative.  

​“It is God himself who has made us what we are and given us new lives from Christ Jesus; and long ages ago he planned that we should spend these lives in helping others” (Ephesians 2:10 TLB).

God's Hygiene Help Center is so excited and appreciative that we  will be involved with our first fundraiser!

Proverbs 3:5-7  (NLT) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart;
    do not depend on your own understanding.
6 Seek his will in all you do,
    and he will show you which path to take.7 Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom.
    Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil.

IMPACT Community Action offered student interns for the summer for 20 hours a week.  So God's Hygiene applied for one to assist Tammy and Dana at the Douglas Community Center.   Impact will  pay the participant $10 per hour for their part time position over the summer, and are currently seeking businesses like yours to host more youth. The program serves 16-21 year old youth who are currently involved with the foster care system. Our goal is to provide them with valuable experiences to help shape their futures through cultivating passions, and provide them with a source of income that can help them overcome any barriers they may face.   Since God's Hygiene does not have any paid employees, we have not applied for a Bureau of Workers' Comp number.  It is a requirement to have that to have a student intern.  Tammy had looked forward to mentoring the young person and getting the Help Center organized.
