I talked to Joel and the church (Bridge) will be partnering with us in getting ready for Chris Cable's meal, etc. at Market Street Manor. The date Chris set is November 22nd, only a couple of weeks away! Here's what Joel and I came up with:
1. For the next two Sundays, we'll be collecting any gently-used coats/clothing (infant to adult);
2. We'll have a sign-up sheet for anyone willing to make soup, or stew, or baked bread, or cookies to drop off at the meal on 11/22 to support the meal (I'm sure Chris would also welcome any physical help that day too, serving, bringing a cookstove to heat food, etc. See his website for further info at chriscable.blogspot.com);
3. Last year we did food/gift boxes for Christmas to needy families and Joel would like to do this again; he will see if Chris can get him names of families who could really use the help. This is something we'll be gearing for December.
Let's get moving and reach out to Redding for Him!!

Wow. I just discovered this blog. Thank you so much for your help. It's like going to battle and discovering reinforcements that have been there from the beginning. Stay tuned for the Christmas Plans. It includes baking dessert plates for every room and delivering them Christmas Eve to invite them to our Christmas Eve Service. Then Christmas Morning, my family is going to postpone present opening time to deliver toys to every child in that Manor. I can't wait to hear the Bridge weigh in on this one.
