PEACE BEGINS WITH A SMILE...

"Do all the good you can, By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can, In all the places you can,
At all the times you can, To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can." -John Wesley

Our "Special Family" Food Basket

Each year before Christmas the church does an outreach project where we can provide baskets of food items to families in need. Jessie was very involved with helping me fill a basket this year. We bought the food on our weekly grocery store run to Wal-Mart. I read off the items on the list and made her "in charge" of keeping those items separate from our groceries. Every time we pulled something off the shelf, she would ask if it was for our "special family"! I hope that she learns early that no matter what our needs or wants, there is always someone with a greater need than us.
