Ministry Month Challenge Day 29

Today I taught at co-op today. Now I'm tired, but I feel good. I love my students. Even though we drive each other nuts sometimes, but we have so fun anyway.

Ministry Month Challenge Day 14

I was sort of lazy today. I've done some cleaning, cooking, preparing for another day of co-op, answering e-mails, (listening to some fun music) and blog reading. Nothing that I could count for the ministry month challenge. Maybe I'll do something this evening. Anyway I thought that I would write and let you guys know what is going on.

Ministry Month Challenge Day 13

Today I'm making another preemie baby gown. So fun and soft. I was working on it at a friends house and their six year old son comes up and asks me what I'm building. LOL! Kids are the best!

Today I didn't have time to make anything. My family went to help out some of the fire victims in Bastrop. It was a long full day, but it was so neat to see how many people were stepping up to lend a hand. It was amazing.

Today I did co-op again. It's become an all day thing. But I love it. There are so many people I get to touch with God's love. It's neat.

Ministry Month Challenge Day 6

Today I went over to an elderly neighbors house and cleaned it for her. It's so neat to hear her stories about the past.
And I'm also hoping to do some writing. I'm hoping to get a short film idea into the computer in the next few hours. I had better get to work. See you tomorrow.

Ministry Month Challenge Day 1

So for day 1 I was pretty busy. I taught at co-op. I'm teaching two classes and assisting in two. It was a little crazy, but I enjoy the people that I get to hang out with and the things that I learn.
Sometimes I wonder why I do it. There's a lot of preparation and things that go into this one day. But then I remember the kids that I get to teach, the families I get to know, and the people that I get to encourage. It makes it all worthwhile.

Ministry Month Challenge!

During the month of September I will be putting another challenge on myself. This time I will be challenging myself to do one thing every day related to ministry. Whether it involves crafting, or working, or giving thing away, I'm going to do one thing every day for someone else.
Each day I will post what I did for you to see (and to keep me accountable to my own challenge).
This should be a busy month, but I'm looking forward to it.
Feel free if you decide to do something similar to send me pictures or a short note about what you are up to. It might end up on the blog.
So here we go!
