Body Works

"What we have is one body with many parts, each its proper size and in its proper place. No part is important on its own. Can you imagine Eye telling Hand, 'Get lost; I don't need you'? Or, Head telling Foot, 'You're fired; your job has been phased out'? (from 1 Corinthians 12 MSG).

 

Ann Wayne led our Christmas Shoeboxes for the Elderly program. These wonderful ladies helped.
God bless all who gave boxes, time, resources!

It takes many people with various gifts, working together, to get our yearly shipment to Romania ready to go. Some of the people are known and seen in photographs on facebook or in blogs. Many are unseen.

Church Women's Group, donated September 2013!

But God knows each person. He saw families shopping for special items to be put in Christmas Boxes of Hope. He knows sacrifices made. He saw Andy Baker's long hours trying to coordinate shipping schedules and costs. Our Father was blessed when He saw hands creating walker bags and lap robes and winter hats.  

Great volunteers: Donna & Lisa
"I think we can get one more thing
in this box!"

I believe He rejoiced when His people found warm winter wear items on clearance racks and purchased them to send to the homeless in Romania. God saw volunteers working for hours to package donated goods--in donated warehouse space. 

Cheryl is a great "Scribe," an important
job since we must keep good records.

I could go on and on describing just what I know has happened in the last months leading up to our container successfully shipping. 

I rejoice to know that God knows every single act of service done in His name, and I am asking Him to pour out His blessings!

As you view the photos on this page, would you do so gratefully and with praise on your lips for all that the Body of Christ has worked together to do?

 "As it is, we see that God has carefully placed each part of the body right where he wanted it"  (from 1 Corinthians 12 MSG).

Yay God!  Here is our container of items shipping to Romania for Remember-the-Children.org and Elder Orphan Care.
Please pray it arrives safely and teams going in December will spread God's love with each item inside!
