The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
—23rd Psalms

Community Chaplain Services, Inc. supports the caring, human component in an uncertain world. Messages of hope can come with a stuffed bear. Patients can talk to a teddy bear at 4 a.m. when the world is asleep. Little things make a difference when someone is away from home. Nothing tames worry and fear better than a teddy bear.

The reassurance of Scripture makes a hospital stay less upsetting. The 23rd Psalm takes on new meaning in a hospital bed. CCSI provides personal Bibles for patients, and we encourage them to take the Bibles home for comfort and spiritual wellness during and after recuperation.

If you’d like to contribute Bears and Bibles to provide hospital patients with much-needed comfort, please contact Andrew Barnes at: 682.367.0086.
