Her friend of 12 years, Priscilla Myles, sensed she was in need and offered to help before Frost even asked.

Myles — the founder and executive director of Blessed Provisions, a diaper and toiletry bank based in Frederick — helped Frost get diapers and clothes for her son.

When Frost left Myles’ house, her car’s trunk was “full of stuff,” she said.

Frost, who lives in Germantown, has known Myles since the pair met at their previous church in Montgomery County.

From diapers to clothes to emotional and spiritual support, Frost said Myles has helped her family in many ways.
