The Least of These

Then the righteous will answer him, "Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink?When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?
The King will reply, "I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me."
Matthew 25:37-40

The Multiplying Affect

I have been so blessed and encouraged by the people who have come alongside our team to multiply our efforts.  Michael’s mom has made 150 pillowcase dresses in sizes 1-12.  They are so adorable. She is very talented.  Here’s a picture of what they look like.  She has been working on them since September. 
A Bible study group for sixth grade girls has also made 50 pillowcase dresses.   Members of my homeschool group have filled one full-size suitcase with school supplies and are close to filling a second one.  (It’s a good thing I was able to fit all my stuff in my carry-on).  The father of one team member has hand crafted wooded toy cars.  Even our kids have gotten involved.  Over the summer they each sold some of their toys at a garage sale.  The money was set aside for a charity of their choosing.  They decided to buy soccer balls and bubbles for us to take to the feeding stations.  Below is a picture of them with their proud purchases.
