A Caring Heart

This Christmas season Madison employees 576 individuals. Our team includes individuals from all walks of life and beliefs.  As Christmas arrives co-workers collaborate and formulate plans together to Give.

Families in our community have been excellent receivers from generous giving. One may expect a doctor or a nurse to give more because they may have more. However, giving is a priority regardless of position.

One housekeeper wanted to give but had no money. He asked if he could work a shift and have the hospital donate the proceeds to a Christmas family, but we were not set up to do that. Eventually, the housekeeper saved some money to contribute. This housekeeper and others like him are some of the wealthiest in heart. A giving heart is filled with gratitude, joy, and abundance.

 

 

May each of us be lost in joy from giving more of ourselves this season. Merry Christmas!

The Madison Memorial staff has lost over 500 pounds through our Biggest Loser competition! Congratulations Rosa for being our winner! How did she do it? This was her comment on the Biggest Loser Challenge: “Two years ago I was diagnosed with high blood pressure. Given the option of taking medicine or trying to make a lifestyle change, I went with trying to live a healthier life. Just telling myself I was going to lose weight has never really worked in the past so I decided to go about it by setting little goals for myself and trying to win the war one little battle at a time.
