aubiefifty 16,740 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 have any of our fam members come down with the virus yet? i wonder how many members we have that live alone and are at risk? people with little or no family would probably have a harder time getting by. i am surprised someone has not already asked. someone gifted me several bags of dried beans so i have extra for anyone in the anniston gadsden area. i live right on the poverty line but i have all my stuff paid for so i am fine but i could spring maybe a one person one time deal on like a hundred bucks for meat or canned goods as well. come on people lets show why aufam is such an awesome site. thoughts and prayers are great but i believe Jesus would tell us to stand up and help someone.

gr82be 14,422 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 You're a good man @aubiefifty. Mark 12:41-44 New International Version (NIV) The Widow’s Offering 41 Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts. 42 But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a few cents. 43 Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. 44 They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnphan 6,050 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Today was a tough day. Had to lay off almost my entire staff. I can’t explain how difficult and disheartening this was. Gonna try to make take outs and delivery work to keep the doors open but I highly doubt the numbers are gonna work. Difficult times ahead. After fighting cancer and having Crohns related surgery this last year I am sure taking a beating. Please support your local restaurants as much as you can during this time, our existence depends on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passthebiscuits 6,844 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Those of you in and around the Auburn area in any need let me know. (Hit up my DMs, yo.) Stay away and stay clean. We’re all in this together! (Cue Troy and Gabriella) No for real though, if you are near Auburn and have any needs at all...if there’s any way that I or my family can help, all you have to do is say the word. This is where the Auburn family is at its best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guilty of not wanting to go out to eat and I was thinking yesterday about that. Take out is a good alternative for the business and you can still tip whether you are waited on at the table or at the car window. I'm going to try to do better with this. Thanks for your post. God bless you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So for those who live near you can support you through take-out orders? I am trying to do this myself in Atlanta ordering as much takeout as my budget allows.
