I love slipping a gospel tract inside things like this to meet the recipients' eternal needs along with the much needed temporal ones. My favorites are from LivingWaters.com. They have such an excellent selection of biblically sound resources there! Thank you so much for sharing this inspiring post! It warms my heart hearing how you included your precious kiddos too! The story of Olive giving those mittens she'd outgrown was incredibly sweet! You're doing a terrific job raising compassionate kids! I love it!! <3Brenda @ Chatting Over Chocolatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01812012666030162944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3845564247295785989.post-65927929941505892382019-02-08T05:01:56.022-05:002019-02-08T05:01:56.022-05:00I love that your family helps others, and includes...I love that your family helps others, and includes your kids! It instills respect, gratefulness, and kindness in them. Our Life Group did something similar to the Blessing Bags just a couple weeks ago but we put the items in black backpacks.Terra Heckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01528404663373917950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3845564247295785989.post-16179643160979488762019-02-05T11:12:28.315-05:002019-02-05T11:12:28.315-05:00What a sweet way to give back!What a sweet way to give back!Becky Goerendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14297050793456171803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3845564247295785989.post-15811673604575028462019-02-01T19:27:35.617-05:002019-02-01T19:27:35.617-05:00That's such a great idea to do blessing bags a...That's such a great idea to do blessing bags and to involve your kids in collecting warm items. I should do this with my niece. She has so much empathy for people who are sick or sad or need help in some way and I know she would love to help.

We choose an item to bring and then the big kiddos can help hand out what we brought while the littles play on the playground with new friends. We have also done breakfast bags for our area Meals on Wheels. They give us a list of what they want inside them, the kiddos decorate the bags and then fill them up. Thanks for sharing about the bags, that's a great idea for us to do next!Sara @ The Crazy Cozadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00839979087801361433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3845564247295785989.post-35518497118227783322019-02-01T07:45:32.595-05:002019-02-01T07:45:32.595-05:00I love this!

We try to invite families to our home for those holidays that they might not be able to travel and see their own families, like Thanksgiving and Easter. I love that you get your kids involved!Come Home For Comforthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12015608228834897260noreply@blogger.com
