Every year our church hosts the Wise Men Gift Exchange. The church collects new and gently used toys to give to those in need in our community. You can see in this picture above that our sanctuary was filled with toys. What you can't see in this picture is the room off to the left filled with bicycles. Someone donated almost 30 brand new bicycles from Target this year. I was blown away by the generous people of our church and community.
This is the gift wrap area. It was my job to coordinate and make sure this part of the exchange ran smoothly. Every parent that came through the exchange could choose three gifts from different areas for each child. They would bring those gifts to this station to be wrapped. It got pretty busy but our amazing volunteers did a great job keeping things moving.
This is a picture of the many volunteers and our fearless leader Margaret. She got all of us together to pray before we opened the doors for the exchange to begin. It was such a blessing to be a part of this amazing event. God is so good!!
