SHOE DRIVE THIS WEEK!

Wow! What an amazing/crazy few weeks! I will be honest; there have been days that have been complete struggles and others that have been wonderful and even easy! I wish I could say that I have kept up pace in my Bible reading & praying for the world but I haven't and I'm behind, about a week at this point. The crazy thing, ok not really crazy because I understand it is a spiritual thing, is I can tell the days I don't get in the Word or pray. Those are my worst days. I guess that means God is answering my prayer for hunger for his Word and that prayer would be like oxygen to me! So I am working hard to get caught back up by Feb 1st and will continue on in this journey and I am once again resolved to push on...it has been a much better month than the last several trying to do anything on my own.

Now for the massive praise report that I have! I found a place to donate shoes collected from my shoe drive! At my new church where I am getting more and more involved my small group leader is helping me by getting permission of our small group to collect shoes. So, this week (and maybe next week as well) I will be collecting shoes (and any clothes-I have some since I have cleaned out my closet)! (New and gently used-all sizes!) They will be donated to a shelter that the church works with that helps clothe families in need, called Victory Ministries. If you would like to bring me shoes (if you live near) or if you would like to mail me money (so that I can buy shoes) or shoes just let me know! If mailing me something sounds crazy (cuz it sounds a little crazy to me) and you want to be a part of this find a place to donate shoes this week.

I am so excited, thankful, and full of prayer for the people who will receive these shoes!!! I can't wait to share with you how it goes. May you have a wonderful and blessed week!
