I slept over at T's house last night, and we were brainstorming ways to raise money for some African charities. We talked about it for about two or three hours. Eventually, we both kept coming back to the idea of selling hand-made items at a yard sale. When we woke up the next morning, T's mom announced that everyone in the neighborhood was having a yard sale. I couldn't believe my ears.
I had to pause for a moment just to admire how truly powerful and wonderful God is. This was obviously not a coincidence. We quickly jumped out of bed, and got started making some jewelry. About an hour later, we had made rings, earrings, necklaces, and bracelets. We went outside into the front yard and set up our table, including a charity donation jar, and a sign that announced that 50% of the money would be going to charity. We had lots of fun setting up the yard sale, and it was for a worthy cause. We will definitely do this again.
