A New Tradition...

This year we really wanted to get the boys involved in the real meaning of Christmas. The gift of Giving. I contacted a lady at the local DSS and to see if there was any way that the Foster Families would be okay with receiving lightly used toys. She gave me the name of a very sweet lady that planned all of the social events for the Foster Families.
After talking with her I thought why not get the whole church involved? So, we announced it and sent out a few emails and God delivered the rest! It was an amazing night each kid got 3 toys and there was dozens left over! They took everything that was left and stored it in their storage unit.

They also received things that they were in desperate need, A crib, baby clothes, infant swings, highchairs the list continues.... Just when I doubt, the creator shows up and amazes me once again!

The unity of the church blew me away!
"I appeal to you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment." 1 COR 1:10

Looking forward to next year!
