Hi guys! I know it has been awhile since you last heard from me, and that's because my laptop broke! But, no worries, it should be ready to go in a couple days! Anyway, I am excited to share with y'all an idea/mission that God has laid on my heart. For the past couple days, God has consistently been keeping my mind on a way to give back to Indianapolis. I have been praying about it and talking to some people and I have come to the conclusion that I will be creating and distributing "Blessing Bags." A Blessing Bag is more or less a care package for the homeless. I have also been concerned with how many individuals do not own jackets, gloves, hats, etc. This is also a priority of mine. Not only will I be passing out Blessing Bags, but I plan to give those in need items to keep them warm this winter. Now, what does this mean?? This means that I need your help! I do have the funds to make this mission possible, but I would greatly appreciate it if I had some assistance! This is a huge task and I hope to have everything done and passed out by my Christmas break! Below is a list of items I plan to include in my Blessing Bags and items I plan to give away for warmth! Please dig deep in your closets! I need men's, women's, and children sizes! I appreciate anything! If you don't have any extra coats, gloves, or hats feel free to donate a monetary gift. Even something the size of $5 would help me out so much!! (I can send you a picture of the receipt to prove that's what I spent it on!) I am not one to ask for money, but this is a huge task and will help my city immensely. If you can't help out with clothes, food, or financially, all I ask is that you please please please just pray for me and my mission.

"And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:19In others words, God will always provide!! I'm not concerned how I will be able to afford this or make this mission possible, because I know I have God on my side.
If you have any suggestions or ideas, feel free to direct message me, text me, or comment! Feel free to share this to get the word out. I will be in the Rochester area for Thanksgiving and I can make a trip later if needed. I know this is short notice, but I really appreciate the support and prayers.
Thank you so much!
God Bless
