Girl's Night

It wasn't planned that way but it ended up being a 'girl's night'. Jay was off on a Missions trip to PA. So sorry but he was way too busy to take any pictures for the blog. Mike was sick at home and Brian was working late, so it turned out to be a girls night and we made the most of it by packing about 10 Operation Buddy boxes to ship off to Afghanistan!This project has sparked the interest and support of people outside of our team. The local YMCA, where my husband Charlie is a member, allowed us to post notices regarding our project and to put out a collection bin. Members of the YMCA were so very generous and donated lots and lots of supplies for our boxes. Mike's boss and his boss's wife made a cash donation for supplies. We have been moved and we are grateful !

After packing the boxes and loading them into Kim's car, we gathered in the living room and simply shared , prayed and cried out to God together. It was not our usual team study. We simply followed the Lord's urging to lay down our burdens . We serve a faithful and loving God.

Walking In Line With the Word,
Sally

  1. It's so cool to see how you all have come together for Kim and Chip in support of Doug and the guys of the 2/3. Looks like you've gathered a lot of great stuff there, and I can just imagine how exciting it will be for the guys to open those packages... I'm also thinking that the Scope is going to come in REAL handy! :D
