The Greatest Need

Hey Everyone,
I have been talking to Abby and she let me know another way that we could really help out the boys that she works with. All of the boys that are in her street program but not in her home are really in need of clothes. Most only have one pair of clothes that they wear at all times. It would be soo great if we could do something to change that! So along with the other things listed below, we are now going to be accepting new and used boys (and mens) clothing. (We are taking men's clothing for the Uncles in the house as well!) The guys are all sizes, so ANYTHING you can donate will help! We would like to take over any hats, shoes, shirts, shorts, underwear (new please), socks, coats, or anything else you have :) Thank you so much for helping out!

Ways to Help :)

Stacia and I will be going to Uganda during our Christmas break, to make this Christmas special for these boys, we wanted to bring a lot of items over for them! Abby has just shared with me a couple of the things that she thinks the boys would be love! If you would like to donate anything, email me at the email address listed at the right of the blog and we can work on a way for you to get that to either Stacia or myself! 

Some of the items include:
-Board games like: Clue, The Game of Life, Connect 4, Checkers, Chess, Sorry, Chutes and Ladders, Battleship, Twister, Jenga, Dominoes
-Soccer Balls
-Volleyballs
-Coloring Books
-Candy
-Stationary Paper (the boys LOVE writing encouraging letters to friends)
-Mens clothing for the Uncles in the house: Shirts, Pants, Hats, Shoes
-Candy
-Cookies
-Frosting (for birthday cakes for the boys)

These are just some of the things she suggested. If you can think of any other items you think the boys would like you can just email me and ask! We also are taking money donations, so that Stacia and I can purchase food and a couple of other items to take for the house and for Abby!

Another way you can help is by purchasing the jewelry that is on our facebook page! All of the money from those sells will go straight to the house! :)

And as always, we covet your prayers! Some ways you can pray for Abby are below! Another prayer request is that one of the Uncles (David) is trying to get his visa to come to the States for a month in January, so be praying that that happens! Also be praying for Stacia and I as we try to figure out our schedules and prepare to head over there! 

Thanks so much for reading!
