[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 1826111, member: 85"]The wholesalers I order from keep sending notices about shortened hours, skeletal staffs and how they will continue to take orders. Like even if we order, who are we going to sell to. However, one did not do that instead they sent this which I thought was very thoughtful. [I]In the last few weeks, COVID-19 has had an undeniable impact on global markets, health, and safety conditions. These are unprecedented times and we are all learning to manage through the rapidly changing situation together on a daily basis. Please know that the health and safety of you, your employees, as well as our own, is our top concern. Supporting our retail community remains our priority.[/I] [B][I]"Prayer For A Pandemic"[/I][/B] May we who are merely inconvenienced Remember those whose lives are at stake. May we who have no risk factors Remember those most vulnerable. May we who have the luxury of working from home Remember those who must choose between preserving their health or making their rent. May we who have the flexibility to care for our children when their schools close Remember those who have no options. May we who have had to cancel our trips Remember those that have no safe places to go. May we who are losing our margin money in the tumult of the economic market Remember those who have no margin at all. May we who settle in for a quarantine at home Remember those who have no home. [B]As fear grips our country, Let us choose LOVE.[/B] During this time when we cannot physically wrap our arms around each other, Let us yet find ways to be the loving embrace of God to our neighbors. [B]Amen By Dr. Cameron Wiggins Belim[/B][/QUOTE]
