Most churchgoers are familiar with the Shoebox Ministry - just in case you haven't heard of it, it is for children and was started I believe by Billy Graham's son Franklin. Simply it is filling a shoebox with some essentials and some goodies for a little boy or girl and returning it to a central pickup. http://www.samaritanspurse.org/ We have been involved in this one for some time. It is really worthwhile, I think the deadline was this past weekend for the boxes themselves, but money is always welcome to get the boxes delivered.
