For the Love of Sam

If you know Sam Acra, then you know how much she cares for others above herself before she ever considers herself. She has a strong history of being one that always puts her kids and  others families needs first. If you are a parent, there is a good chance she has cared for one of your kids. If you have been around her for any amount of time, she probably showed you her biggest strengths, hospitality and love.


Recently, Sam has been diagnosed with a very rare disease, Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD).  

This disease is rapidly debilitating to the body with not much chance of survival short of a miracle. We choose to believe and know miracles happen everyday.


Sam is currently in Barnes-Jewish hospital in St. Louis, MO.  Sam’s daughters have been caring for her 24/7 since the onset of this terrible disease. She is being moved to Point Lookout Nursing and Rehab in Hollister, MO within the next few days.


We are trying to help raise much needed funds to cover her bills as well as expenses for the girls to able to focus on being with their Momma!


The funds will be used for travel expenses, food, daily parking fees, motel expenses, and other unexpected costs during their stay in St. Louis and after they return home.



We all love Sam. She has been a great asset to our community and has stepped up for many. Let’s step up for her!  All monetary donations are appreciated, but we especially ask for prayers.
