Periodically when folks ask for specific things they can do to help, we encourage them to raise funds for:
SANDALS.
Around here, kids wear their sandals until they have holes in the bottom. And that exposes them to worms and other hazards in the ground that can cause infection and discomfort.
We came up with a promotional tool, a label that can be printed and placed on Pringles cans (or whatever) as a change collector to help the kids. Several churches have used this tool to help collect for this ongoing need.
Right now we are out of sandals though the need is still there. And when we have extra sandals, we are happy to exchange new for old for the kids that come to the services - even before they ask. It’s simply meeting needs.
Perhaps the Lord would say, “When I was shoeless you…” It fits… Whatever you do for the least of these you did it unto me… what a neat Lord to allow us to do things that bless Him.
Blessings,
Darrell
