I love seeing all the sights and smells, and as of today, have had something new baking at home every week! It's SO exciting!
Robert & I also decided to participate in Northshore's Thanksgiving meal program this year. Basically, we walked into the church last week for our pre-marital counseling, and saw a man standing in front of a big stack of round laundry baskets. I asked him what it was, and it turns out that it's pretty much a ministry of giving. Each year, they ask the church to take a basket (or two, which we did), and fill it with non-perishable items to give to families in need who otherwise wouldn't have a Thanksgiving meal. Then, you also include a $20 gift card for a Turkey. :) It's SO incredible! I wish FBC had started something like this. I could do it, but I'm already busy 6 days a week in ministry; I think it's someone else's turn. However, Robert & I are going to be emailing our entire families asking for help to fill the baskets. If you want to help, just let me know. Even a dollar is a help! :)
Anyway, the season of giving which excites me so very much is upon us, and I couldn't be happier.
Happy Monday!
