Tuesday in Fredericton...
Today was another busy day but very rewarding. This was sponsor family pickup day at the church. We started at 9:00 handing out hampers and sponsor family gifts. It was nice to see the faces of the people when they seen what they had received. People were thankful!!! It is nice to see God working through other people.
At 12:00 I went to the J.O.Y Dinner... Just Older Youth which is the Senior's Group. They had their Christmas Program today so I was invited to it. It was nice and the guest singer had a very inspirational devotional.
After the program was over at 2:00 I headed back to Family Services to help out. I organized some toys... then quickly ran to Walmart to pick up the last few items that we needed from applications that were passed in today. I bought the gifts and came right back... sorted them, straightened up many the gifts that needed to be straightened up. Then it was time to go.
Jen and I left the church went to Subway for supper. Ummm.... macademian nut cookies. That's for you Melissa and Danette. And it is the only reason I go to subway ha ha. After that I ran and changed into different clothes and headed back to the church to do Corps Books.
Doing the Corps Books was very exciting for me. Alright... I know I'm a geak but I LOVE MATH so doing the corps books I really had fun doing. They showed me some of the ins and outs of doing the money for the corps. I actually did the deposit book and counted money. It was cool. It was just something that I enjoy doing so I know I will like it... I better be careful about what I say because I might end up in the Finance Department... ha ha.
Well I left the church around 8:15 and headed to Walmart. Then I made my way back to the house. So I am here now going to write out a few Christmas cards before I head to bed. Going to be another great day tomorrow. We have more hampers going out and we will be walking people through our toy center. Should be fun times. Tomorrow night we head to York Manor to distribute Christmas gifts as the band plays throughout the retirement home.
I hope you are having a great day.
God Bless,
Rebecca
