Shoes...


..something we take for granted every day. Our church is having a shoe drive this weekend. According to some statistics 40% of the worlds population does not have shoes. If you attend my church or do not have a church home and are looking for one, visit us this weekend and bring a pair of shoes with you.

Our church has also teamed up with TOMS Shoes . Check out what they are doing.

Another shoe ministry we were introduced to while watching the NBA playoffs was Samaritan's Feet. They are doing some wonderful things to bring attention to this need.

So come to Fellowship this weekend, bring some shoes, buy some TOMS Shoes at church if you forget to bring some, buy some TOMS Shoes online if you don't come to my church, or go here to donate shoes or cash to Samaritan's Feet.

Wow, it's crazy how the Lord works...I am getting ready to do a whole blog post on shoes and I see yours! Not totally related, but funny how the Lord speaks to us. You'll understand later :-)

Thanks for stopping by my BADP today. I am interested to see that your church collects shoes as well. Our church collects them for an orphange in Ukraine. Each summer a group goes for a week to work in the orphanage. My third grade class collected shoes all last year for this project and the grand total was about 100 pairs! This was our class service learning project.

But why we use our third grade class shoes for that purpose, I mean if we don't want these shoes for own self then why for others.

When we used these shoes for the help of others then we have to provide them new shoes for their wearing, so that they don't feel any difference with others.
