Precious Cargo
Precious Cargo
In North Carolina, there are more than 10,500 children in foster care.
When most children are moved from their house, or transported from home to home, everything they own is packed in trash bags or cardboard boxes. That really hit home when our two boys came to our house with literally their whole lives packed in cardboard boxes and trash bags in the back of a pickup truck.
Age aside, when children or adults see their things being packed away in trash bags or ragged boxes, they equate their own things, and ultimately themselves, as trash...or something not very important. A sense of dignity and pride is lost in the only permanence they have.
Mr. Hamilton and I had the idea of starting a ministry called Precious Cargo. This ministry exists to treat the belongings of these children with the utmost respect and importance and, more importantly, we want to create a sense of pride and dignity within each of the children's hearts to help them see how precious they truly are.
James 1:25 tells us as Christians we are to not just be hearers of the word, but doers of the word. A couple of verses later James tells us to visit orphans and widows in their afflictions. Here's what we are requesting...
-gently used or new duffel bags (no suitcases please)
-toiletry items
-blankets
-pjs/socks
-diapers/wipes
-books/coloring books
-crayons/markers
-toys or other children items
You can turn in any donations to Mr. Hamilton's office or the HS office. While this is an ongoing ministry, we are hoping to have a representative from a local agency to accept our donations at chapel on Thursday.
