Jeremy and Melissa, I’m a retired Marine and Federal Transportation Security Officer and these days you just do not see families like yours that much anymore. I was raised though the 50s and 60s in the country where people help one or the other. Our parents taught us right from wrong and to say yes ma’am, no ma’am or yes sir, no sir and never to talk back to your elders. I’ve been following your videos for sometime now and want to say the last two videos would make anyone cry and it shows the kind of family you really are. I wish the world had a lot more like you, because it would be such a much better world to live in. Wishing your whole family, a blessed and happy holiday and may the good Lord look over you always!

@paulahurley6491 3 месяца назад

I am the same way I always help anyone I can although I have nothing myself, people drop off their animals on my hill and they come to my house and I don't have the heart to see them ran over or hungry so I take them and idk how I've been able to feed them the last few years but God has always seen me through i still have 14 dog's and about 25 cats the shelter is always full but when they thin out they take ad many as they can, if it weren't for Tony at the shelter I wouldn't even be able to feed these baby's and they are my heart, I love animals and always have, I wanted to be a vet my whole life only after an accident it made it impossible, anyway I agree I just love helping any way I can and will continue till the day I am no longer here to help stray animals

Gospel of Jesus Christ John 3:16 For God So loved the world that he gave his only Begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him should not Perish but have Everlasting Life. Jesus Christ Died for the sin of the World, If you believe in ur heart God risen Jesus from the dead and confess him with ur mouth to people you shall be saved. Jesus said I Am The only way to heaven there is no other way! Repent of urs sins (Repent means Change ur Mind turning away from sinful things and being truly sorry for it.) trust Jesus and give ur life to him He Loves you cares about you more than anyone ever will! we are saved By Grace Trough Faith!,this is sin: Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death but the gift of eternal life in our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 3:23 For all have sined and felt short of the Glory of God. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Romans 1:18‭-‬21‭, ‬23 KJV Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9‭-‬10 REPENT OR YOU WILL PERISH REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL GET RIGHT WITH GOD LORD JESUS CHRIST.

Fur babies mean a lot to everyone! I am 58 and a widow & I just put my 8 yr old cat to sleep after spending $8000. & I was told I was bringing him home and they found a cancerous tumor pressing on his bowels, urinary track and his knee. I could have been selfish and brought him home in pain but true love is unselfish and the hardest thing I ever had to do was to send him to heaven pain free. I appreciate all the kindness your family shows to everyone!

The store managers would give them to the people because I would be blubbering like a baby. I got to emotional. But it nothing like what you guys done, and I must say Thank You.🙏

You guys weren't just blessing the people at the store. You were restoring faith in humanity for a lot of folks here on your channel. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

@@GoodSimpleLiving Giving is as important as receiving and I'll tell you why. If we don't learn to receive, we aren't allowing others the gift of giving. For me, giving has always been easy, and many folks over give. Learning to receive took effort, and it is what keeps the complete circle going. If we don't receive it doesn't allow others the gift of giving. So please, take my word for it and rethink what you said to your children at the end of the video. Giving is equally important as receiving. Many people have been taught not to receive. It must all be fluid as water, and equally important. Cheers

One of them really had me break down tho because it was a young woman with 3 kids, and I noticed she had a Marine Corps bracelet on, I asked if she served...she broke down on my shoulder and whispered in my ear that her husband was but the kids dont know that he's not coming home so be quiet. I paid for her stuff but I had to step away from the registers for a bit after that one.

What y’all decide to do as a family is just beautiful. Y’all helped so many people. It’s like the saying treat people like you would like to be treated because you never know what someone is going through. I cried watching y’all. Y’all have an awesome family

Awe, the momma of five who lost a child made me cry big ugly tears. This was such a beautiful thing you did for everyone. ❤

I’m a single mother who does two jobs and teaches in a very deprived area so can truly appreciate how much this would have meant to those people. This video is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever watched. Absolutely wonderful.

It's easier to give than it is to receive. Even the Sousa's had a hard time receiving. It's great what they are doing. Just wanted to add a big Thanks to the people who were so gracious and humble to receive.

I’m a single woman on social security disability. Life is hard and getting harder and I am literally facing possible homelessness. I used to have money to give and did all I could. Now not only can I not afford to buy Christmas presents but I can’t buy food. As I watch this video my heart just SOARS! There are good people out there. Everyone needs a community to lift people up and you guys are always so generous!! Thank you for allowing us to see what true Christmas Spirit is About!!

Check on the local charities like food banks and meals on wheels. They may make it possible for stay in your own home.

@evalynchuran8684 Год назад

We need more people like you. Again, you made me cry through the whole video. In 2017 I lost everything, a retired policeman sold me his camper for 1700$ so I wouldn't freeze in Canada winters. In June, I was able to find an incompleted tiny home when I got back pay owed to me.

@kennethcormier4930 Год назад

I was wiping away tears watching this episode of yours. It's very emotional when a good deed is done to people in need. I'm 65 and on disability and it's hard to buy groceries. I personally buy less and pay more. 2 months ago, a gentleman that I didn't even know did what you were doing. I was at the butcher's and I had over $100 of meat that this gentleman paid for my groceries. I was speechless, which is extremely rare in my case. I was overwhelmed but very thankful. I thanked him over and over again. So, I experienced the feeling of receiving. In my younger years, I was that person to give. And yes, it feels really great when you give. Thank you for this episode ❤️. You and your family are very good caring people. We need to spread more of that kindness around as people.

@danmcbride6258 11 месяцев назад

You are so very thoughtful and charitable. You pass your good fortune off to others in need.

@maryellenrichards391 6 месяцев назад

Thank for showing all of your community, and those of us on RU-vid, that there is still so much kindness and humanity!

@treehuggingmusician595 Год назад

Made me cry. The sweetest was the little girl that wanted a hug after you gave her mom a hug. You were so blessed to be able to give away your winnings. It is always better to give than to receive.

She was so stinken adorable 😍

@kathleeneichler8906 Год назад

Oh WOW! So wonderful, what an amazing gift from the Corp. offices, to the random lady that shoved $200 into your backpack, proof that there is still goodness in abundance in our world. I have watched how you encourage your children by example and your follow through is second to none. May the joy that you have given out to 'strangers' now friends, continue to ripple across this great land. *U* Kathleen

This was amazing to see. You have a beautiful family and I can tell that your intent is pure. So many of those channels that focus on giving only care about views and its obvious. You absolutely deserved to win that contest.❤

It's 5.30am on Sunday, here in Australia. I watched this over my first cup of coffee. I haven't had a single sip, and now it sits in a lake... of my tears. Bless you, bless your local store and bless all those who received your help ❤️

I type this through tears. Tears of JOY! Your family is so inspirational. You share your blessings with everyone. I remember when I was a little girl the world was like that. If Mom wasnt home after school, you walked in to a neighbors house and they welcomed you in , gave you snacks and asked if you needed help with homework. The world we live in now is nothing like that. You give me hope and inspiration to do my part to make this world a better place. May the Lord keep blessing you to help keep blessing others. Together we can ALL make a difference in any small way. Thank you DeSouza family for spreading love and hope.
