I have a praise report this morning. I know several of you have been waiting... Well, I’m blessed to announce that @believinginforever . has not only reached its goal of 2,300 BRAND NEW winter coats, but has exceeded it by 500!! We also received several brand new hats, gloves, hoodies, and other winter items. This week, we will not only be giving away over 2,800 BRAND NEW coats, but also over 3,000 winter items to Kentucky children in need. Thank you to our home base, First Baptist Church Bracktown; long-time sponsor, the Whitaker Family Foundation; and the hundreds of individuals and organizations (too many to name) who donated coats and money this year. Special thanks to the University of Kentucky Credit Union for a last-minute donation that will cover our U-Haul delivery costs this week, as well as some extra coats! @highlight This truly is a COMMUNITY coat drive!!!!! All glory to God for seeing htis through, year in and year out, regardless of the challenges!

We plan to deliver 2,300 coats on Monday and Tuesday, and on Saturday, we will host a one-time community walk-in coat drive, where the community can come in and pick from what is left. We will also be giving away FREE books from my late daughter’s memorial book project, The Luna Library. That will be at 9 am on Saturday, December 20th, at First Baptist Church of Bracktown.

I have so much more to say as the week continues, but for now, I want to say THANK YOU!!!!!!!
