"Suppose you see a brother or sister who has no food or clothing, and you say, 'Good-bye and have a good day;   stay warm and eat well' - but then you don't give that person any food or clothing.  What good does that do?" - James 2:15-16
       This month (November) at KidSpace we are going to be putting together Welcome Packets to give to kids in the Family Promise program next quarter!
Check out the suggestion list below.  Drop off a few items, money, or a completed packet in the collection box in the east wing/DYR at the church.

Ideas for what you might include in the packet to help families feel welcome:
- welcome signs or cards
- stickers
- Search & Find books (from the Dollar Store)
- eatables (such as tic tacs, lifesavers, gummybears, etc.)
- small stuffed animals
- Capri Sun or other portable drinks
- books (kid-friendly, like Thomas the Train)
- small things that they may forget (such as soap, toothbrush, toothpaste)
