First round of 11/30 reports

Several reports came in this morning and it has been fun to read them! I won't get them all posted tonight, but I'll get started...


A family "took hot pumpkin muffins to the police/fire station in Jackson on Thanksgiving. It took awhile for someone to come to the frong and then she seemed confused at first then happy, after I said we just wanted to thank them for their service from or church and the card was in the basket of goodies." (cummulative servers 58/cummulative served 282)


"We bought muffins for my co-workers, most whom don't attend church. I told them it was a gift from FCC because we care and God loves them. This was part of a large effort by our church to do deliberate acts of kindness. They love them and asked the church was. It gave a great opportunity for me to show Christ's love to them." (cummulative servers 60/served 302).


A couple "took cookies to the big rig repair shop (20 people) and Fruitland America Meat Company (5 people). Also took a $15 gift certificate to our single next door neighbor who doesn't go to church that we know of." (cummulative servers 62/served 328).

One family "delivered flowers and book (The Purpose Driven Life) to a lady who had her leg amputated. We also delivered flowers and/treats to 7 neighbors. The response was very positive for the most part although one couple shut us out quickly." (cummulative serves 67/served 336).

Two families went together: We have been making burp cloths for expectant moms. We machine embroidery a design on the burp cloth and then personalize it with the baby's name. So far, we have been making them for expectant moms at Metro Business College. As of January 2009 we are going to continue the K.A. through this next year. We will be adding another group of moms. We will be making burp cloths for moms who have newborns in neonatal intensive car unit at Southeast Missouri Hospital. (cummulative servers 71/served 342).

There are many more reports to come...keep checking back! My heart is full reading these reports!!
