Today I was blessed with a box of crocheted facecloths for shoe boxes! Mrs. E Wiebe, from our congregation, saw a blog post I had made about learning to crochet so I could make some facecloths for shoeboxes. She has been faithfully sitting by her husband's side as he has been in palliative care at the hospital for the past few months and to fill her days, she's been crocheting. Today she dropped off 90 facecloths! She plans to carry on, making more as she spends more days in the hospital. The square ones have a bar of soap inside (wrapped in a bag). These will be used to fill boxes at our church-wide packing party this fall.
Always amazed by the generosity of some people. Instead of focusing only on the negative, she chooses to use her time to bless others. And in turn these facecloths will be a part of a shoe box that will travel across the world, to share about God's love with a child. Amazing!
