Facecloths!

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!

  2. Interesting and informative read. Thanks for sharing. I just found your blog, it was a great read! On the subject of freezer labels a while back I found a UK based Labels Company who printed me some labels for a really low price. If interested then it may be worth taking a look at their website as they did many types of label printing. Freezer-grade labels for all types of cold temperature applications. Guaranteed to stick at cold temps to already frozen items.
    Bonus Trading offers a range of freezer labels specially designed to perform at sub zero temperatures. Both thermal transfer and direct transfer are available in this range.
