Christmas countdown continues!
Thanksgiving was a glorious time of thankfulness and peace around our house…..and with a full house, we are talking MIRACLE! We have 23 children at our home and most of them are under the age of 8. We do want to thank all of you who made that Thanksgiving meal possible because you gave unselfishly.
Since Thanksgiving, we have been very busy screening Christmas applications made by families in need of assistance. We are now gathering decorations for the ministry houses and for the families we find that don’t have a tree or lights for the children to enjoy.
Our biggest ministry concern right now is that we really, really need a warehouse. This is the perfect time of year to gather furniture and appliances to give to our families as they move out on their own and get on their feet. The not-so-perfect thing for us is that we have no way to store the things.
On North State Street in Jackson, there is a man named Mr. Warren Wright who owns a row of warehouse type storefront buildings and they are for sale. I have my eye and my prayers on one of those buildings for the ministry. Please call me if you can help with this in any way or if you know someone who can & will help us get a warehouse or to get that warehouse. My office number at the ministry is 601-355-9589…..anytime!
Please remember to check the brochure for all the times and needs for the festival. There is a link to the brochure on one of the previous posts to this blog. We are still looking for places to put up a bunch of lambs for folks to choose a child to sponsor for Christmas.
Please e-mail me if you have any questions…….
Serving gladly,
Charlotte Wingard
