Oregon Faith Report asked readers, “Who do you think could use some extra thankfulness from fellow Oregonians this Thanksgiving?” Survey results showed almost half felt the greatest recipients should be soldiers. No one placed a vote for volunteers, but in many cases volunteers are among all those listed. When asked if there was anyone we missed. One responder added “stay at home moms”. Another said, “I would also include Chaplains, military, hospital, police, etc. The chaplains working with the vets have tough duty.” Here are the top four survey results:
Soldiers………………………… 41%
Teachers……………………….. 22.7%
Clergy, Pastors……………… 18.2%
Emergency Responders….13.6%
Now that you see the results, make sure to send a phone call or email to one of these deserving workers who are in need of your extra thanks.
Don’t forget the families of the military people. When their loved one is deployed into a combat area, the stress at home in very high. Thanks to all those who serve!! God Bless You All and America.
