I wanted to take a break from my story of transformation, to tell you the exciting things that are happening with my old Beanie Babies! I was one of those girls who was absolutely obsessed with Beanie Babies. I had to have them all. My mom would be at stores before they opened waiting for the newest Beanie Baby. There have been so many times I’ve thought that I need to get rid of them. They have not done anything but clutter our attic. Yet, I have never done anything with them.
The other day this amazing woman posted on her Facebook that she would love to give all of her kiddos Beanie Babies for Christmas. Rebecca is the founder of My Father’s House in Kampala, Uganda and is currently loving the kids at her ministry’s children’s home and school. So, tomorrow I will be hitting the road with these guys…
…We will be making the drive to Tennessee to meet Rebecca and give her the Beanies. I cannot tell you how excited I am to send all 109 (yes I counted) to Africa. I think it’s awesome that God is allowing me to pass along what I once treasured to 109 precious children on the other side of the world. What is even more awesome, is that My Father’s House is one of the places we will be serving with Visiting Orphans in June! You can learn more about Rebecca and her testimony here at my crazy team leader, Kari Gibson’s blog. I cannot wait to hold the hands and faces that will be receiving my Beanie Babies!
