SHEP’s Connection Corner

December 2025

Season Greetings with meetings!

We need a song about November. What a doozy, but thankful we are and forever will be. Cassandra, SHEP’s founder and president, was a guest speaker for fifth graders and taught them the alphabet in sign language. Just think... The more people know at least the alphabet it will make a huge difference in bridging the gap in the communication barrier between the hearing-sighted-DeafBLind world. It’s such a beautiful thing!

Shep even had the pleasure of further educating the community about our services and the needs of the community in general at OSU. We met some amazing people who even decided to be active in future shep events!

We didn’t have a Deafblind community event in November. Instead, Cassandra also took time to see family in Texas. She always has a can-do attitude and stays connected. We encourage you to do so as well!

We have great news! Our SSP program is now back to accepting SSPs requests. With the government shut down, it slowed things down a bit, but we are back in the swing of things just in the nick of time. We do pray you all had a very happy Thanksgiving and the love you received warmed you over for days and days to come.

Remember to follow us on social media and stay in the loop with what is going on and our partnered networks and organizations.

GIVE ME THE SCOOP

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

God doesn’t give us resolutions. We get revelations. Something to think about... What have you reflected on and how are you taking that and moving forward? Greatness is in you and with you, And we are blessed to be a part of your circle.

Here is our prayer for you to kick off the year.

Lord,

We pray love, wellness, prosperity, and love over each and every reader of this newsletter and any connections they have with anyone. We pray for the hands, minds, and hearts of everyone, from the leader of the country, authorities,and loved ones, debt collectors, and anyone that runs across our minds. Lord, we come to you with thankfulness in our hearts for the gifts you bestow on us daily. In Jesus’ name, amen!

Let’s get this year started on the right foot. I heard a joke that right before the clock strikes midnight on New Years, if you lift your left leg and only stand on your right leg, then you’re guaranteed to start the year off on the right foot. Either way, we’re in it to win it, and on the right foot at that!

We “sleighed” December! Our annual Christmas party was nothing short of fun and laughter. Congratulations to the winners of the Musical Popcorn game! It was a game where when the music stopped and you were the one holding the wrapped gift (kind of passed around like hot potato) then you were the one that had 3 seconds to blurt out a holiday themed word that no one else has already said. You can imagine the hilarity. You just had to have Been there!
