This year Sarah participated in Operation Christmas Child. You take a shoe box and fill it full of items for a child in a foreign country. You choose either a boy or girl. and then you choose an age group 2-4, 5-9 or 10-14. You pack your shoe box for whichever gender and age group you chhose. Sarah had trouble choosing so she did one for each age group for a bor and a girl. It was a lot of fun looking for things that would fit into a shoebox that would bring Christmas to a child in a faraway place. Through this experience we really got to talk about how blessed we are. So many everyday things we take for granted. I hope that Sarah always has a heart for others. Through serving others we're reminded of our own blessings.
