Joy in Giving

Weekends seem to be the busiest times for us. There's always something to do in the Fletcher household and never enough time in the day. 

Matt & I had the most amazing opportunity to volunteer a few hours of our time on Saturday at our church for their Toy Shop event. Having been at North Shore for almost a year now, we were able to be a part of this yearly event where our church partners with local school districts to identity families who need a little extra help during the holiday season. These families are then able to come to our church where we have set up an chance for them to "shop" for their children. 

It was definitely one of the most rewarding things we've done this year, & so great to have done something so great along side our entire church family. We met some amazing parents & felt so humbled and grateful to have been able to dedicate our time to help these families and even pray over them. This is something we definitely want to continue being a part of. 

 What a cute set up! 
 We were able to meet our goal of donating over 3,000 toys. God is so great! 
We love Steve & Kay and our fellow small group couples. Blessed to have these individuals in our lives as we go through marriage and continue strengthening our relationship with Christ.
