(EEW Magazine News. BUFFALO) October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Empowering Everyday Women Ministries is excited that your donations have made it possible for us to give care packages to over 100 women battling this disease.

Inside their individual care package they will receive a card, warm blankets and socks, all natural lip balms and moisturizers, free books and devotions, t-shirts, and gift cards for online or in-store shopping that can be used at more than 100 retailers around the world.

Your generosity is helping our ministry remind these wonderful ladies that they are more than conquerors through Christ.

Thank you for your assistance in supporting courageous warriors.

In addition to helping us take care of others, don’t forget to take care of yourself by looking out for these 7 signs of breast cancer:

• A lump in your breast

• Lumps under your arm

• Breast swelling

• Irritation of the breast

• Nipple pain or breast pain

• Changes in breast texture like thickening, reddening, dimpling or scaliness

• Discharge from the nipple that isn’t breast milk

 If you notice any of these things mentioned above, head in to see your doctor. Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. Make sure you maintain your temple.
