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!

Another testimonial
The Baby Closet has been such a help and blessing to us! We (my
husband, me and our 4 children) are missionaries in Tanzania, East
Africa. We returned to the U.S. for our furlough this past June and
were very surprised shortly after arriving home to find out that I am
expecting our 5th child. Of course, a month before we returned to the
States, I sold most of my baby things to a fellow missionary in
Tanzania who was expecting. She was overjoyed to be able to get baby
things that we either cannot find or afford over there. Since our
youngest child is now 4, and I had surgery a few years ago, we thought
it was safe to move our things on to another family who could use
them. Boy, were we wrong! The Lord had another baby for us and we were
not sure how we would replace all the things we had just sold. We
would just have to rely on the Lord to supply our needs--and He
did--through the Baby Closet! I got some much needed things, and even
some that were just wants. One of those things was a nice set of
cloth diapers that will really come in handy in Tanzania! That was one
thing for which I had specifically prayed! Your labor of love will
reach all the way to the continent of Africa. Words can't express my
gratitude--but thank you all so much!
