CHRISTMAS CELEBRATIONS!!
Another thing I want to do is bake a bunch, I mean TON, of sweet breads and go door to door and give away Christmas bread! Something my family always did. I don’t think ever on a large scale, but to folks we sort of knew.
People could send fruit cakes or other typical Christmas goodies. A donation of $10 could bake quite a bit of bread! I may get my youth group to do some of the baking. My church may even help out. I’m hoping we can make it pretty big. I would like to walk around and knock on doors. Be a great way for us to meet people.
We just got three huge boxes of materials and pillows. Thanks!! We really did mean, “Hit me with a pillow.”
People can really decide how they want to help. They can send money or materials. We would like to be able to give pillows to people in the community for Christmas gifts!
Pillows & Fabrics ranges the same from $5-50.
I got this email from Sarah Fowler with the sewing stuff. It’s a pattern that she put together for us. You may be able to get that put up as a project that people can donate to, or even a womens ministry could sew them and send them.
We can have a handful of women sew them and we can give them out around the community. It could be a big help to them come the holidays.
One of the many ways that YOU can help out down here is with a simple gift!! Currently we are making pillow cases for pillows that we can give away around the community here in Ciudad Juarez.
At the moment of this post, I do not know the cost of a pillow, but I imagine that you can find them from $10 to $100. Depends how therapeutic you want to get. We can also use some more fabric to make the pillow cases for the pillows!! Again, I don’t know the cost of fabric. I assume it could be priced much like the pillows.
If you are interested in being invloved in this project, you can mail the pillow or fabric down here, or donate the funds specifically to the project! Either one works for us!!
