Widman's shares sweetness with woman, her family
I like chocolate. A lot. In fact, I like chocolate almost as much as I like people who go out of their way to be kind. Maybe that’s why I like this story, sent in by Tina Kraft of Fargo, so much. It’s full of sweetness!

Phillips: Living their faith by giving
Twice this past year, Ignite Church in Moorhead passed out a gift to its members. Each member got an envelope filled with cash – $10, $20, $50 or $100. But the cash wasn’t the gift. The real gift was the experience of giving that money to someone else, someone in need.

Phillips: Experiencing the joy of unexpected giving

Philips: Readers share their letters of love
Thank you to everyone who took the time this holiday season to write a letter to someone you love. Whether you sent it to The Forum or plan to privately deliver it on your own, I hope you know the impact you are making.
