Our family has in the past wrapped warm wear for the homeless to deliver in the Skywalk systems in Des Moines, IA. They were well received and even had an article in the DM Register about the Secret Santas that blessed the homeless.
As a church we came together to wrap gifts, eat finger food, munchies, and fellowship. It was a great wrapping party. Christian Walk was delegated as the blanket wrapper since he was "bragging" about his wrapping skills.
We received so many donations for scarves, hats, mittens, gloves, and blankets! Thank you God for this service that we can impact the community.
Most recently there were mini shelters built for the homeless along the DM river. Recently there was a fire and the "shelters or huts" were deemed unfit and were torn down. So we have many people who are not prepared for the winter that we want to help!
Yeah! Building relationships, encountering God, and Serving others is what we are all about!
