thank you for the suitcase...

I often wonder if the people who leave suitcases, bibles, and other goodies in the church office ever know about this little space. This little outlet of mine. This corner of my heart I section off just for this. Just for the love of the fatherless, the motherless. Whether it be short-term or long. This small little thing, that maybe nobody would even think of. They do, a bag. And so for this... friends, family, strangers, thank-you. Thank-you to the person who left a brown leather suitcase in CCTC's office this week, I got it! And thank-you to the many who have left them in the past.

 I have been working to make connections around town. This is not an easy task.
This week several bags will be going to the homeless teen shelter where I know that several foster teens are currently and more will frequent. I would like them to have access to a bag. Not even the shelter has a bag to offer them.
In October I will be meeting with our state officials to work out a pick up procedure with them.
And finally Guarantee Carpet Cleaning has allowed warehouse space for storage and is hanging shelving freeing up the room we intend for foster care!

Our community is so amazing and I look forward to seeing what is coming this next year (as in school year, yes I think in school years haha!)

Peace Out Peeps! Feel Free to email at Beautiful_baggage@yahoo.com contact by FB, or comment here with any questions regarding our project and how to get involved!
 
Join the movement, help the kids right in front of you.
We might not all be called to be foster parents, but we are all called to help!!
