Lottie Moon, an early Southern Baptist Missionary, was born and died on December 25. Due to her many years of dedication to the mission work in China, Southern Baptists named their yearly offering for foreign missions in her honor. For many years our church has recycled aluminum cans to give the money earned to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions. For quite a few years our garage has been the storing place for the cans brought to the church for recycling. Throughout the year Woody gets the bags, boxes, etc. of cans out of the garage and takes them to the recycling place. Ever since Woody broke his arm last year, Nathan and family have helped to get them to the recycling place. Today, Nathan brought over his empty trailer and he and Woody loaded it up...they even had to put some into the back of Nathan's van. Then Nathan and Woody headed off to get the last recycle check of this year to give to the Lottie Moon Christmas offering.
Woody has had a busy day wrapping presents, watching TV, and reading. I have kept plugging along on the Christmas sewing. The major project that I have been working on was completed an hour or so ago...now for a several dollies that need new dresses! But shhhhhhhhhh...don't let the dolls know...still secret sewing!
