Books..Books...Books...

We are now accepting children's books for the babycloset! We are taking board books, and story books suitable for children up to age 4. Books in good condition. No chapter books. Hope you can find some good ones at garage sales or on your bookshelf that are no longer age appropriate for your house :) Books are such treasures to pass along. What a fun way to encourage reading at a young age!

Fundraising....Garage Sale

So the babycloset decided to have a garage sale to raise some funds....We were hoping for $100-200. However, our little sale raised $555!!!! How exciting! Thanks to everyone that sorted clothes, made signs, worked the sale, and made the 4 day sale even possible! Thanks for all your endless work Keri Harrison. And thanks to Fenton Right to Life for their generous donation. Amazing what happens when we all work together and what God can do...over and above what we could even imagine.

babycloset sends dresses to Haiti

So...we heard there was a need for little girls dresses and skirts in an orphanage in Haiti. So...we went through all our bins of girls clothes and send all that we had! After the quake, one of our lovely volunteers was trying to think of a way that we could help. We weren't sure at the time what exactly we could do..but an opportunity came! So.....thanks a million to everyone that has bought little baby girl and toddler dresses and donated them to the babycloset....some of them ended up in Haiti! I continue to be amazed at how God takes what we give and does such beautiful amazing things.

Wii Bowling Tournament

The church is having a fundraiser for the babycloset. Yay!

It will be a Wii bowling tournament that will take place on April 16th. The cost is $10 per couple. A couple is not just a married couple, it is a couple of girls, a couple of guys, and couple of friends, really just two people on the same team. So if you are interested and would like more details sign up in the connect center or call the church office. Hope you can join us!

We did it!

"We did it, we did it, we did it, hooray!" (in the words of Dora)
What a humongous job of switching over from fall/winter clothing to spring/summer! But we did it! Thanks so much to all of you amazing volunteers that worked late nights helping us make the "big switch." Your efforts were so helpful and totally worth it! Now, we won't have to do that again until August. So grateful for all of you. Looking forward to all the exciting changes in the coming months, even the bundling of the onesies, as I have probably already told many of you (too many times).

You are a great team and I love serving with all of you!
