As we were looking for Gods will and finding different ways to minister to the people here I found these “quiet bags” online. At first I planned on getting a few for Elijah when we need him to sit quietly. Then I realized what a blessing it would be to have a full set to use when little ones join their older siblings for Bible lessons. I have links to several sites that offer free patterns and ideas, but we don’t have access to color printers or a dollar tree 🙂 If you or your church would be interested in donating the materials for a set, please contact us. We have the opportunity to have them shipped free at the end of this week. 🙂
