Our Spare Change to Spare Babies and Change Lives

Each year at the crisis pregnancy center that I direct, Life Matters Outreach , we have a fundraiser that carries on from Mother's Day to Father's Day. We pass out baby bottles to the community (mostly churches), and individuals take the bottles home on Mother's Day and fill them with change, then return them on Father's Day. This year, thanks be to the Lord Who always provides, we raised $9,672.87. That's a lot of nickels and dimes!

Here is my Daddy, who is our volunteer handyman/errand boy/computer technician/printer repairman/change hauler/etc., etc., taking a load of change to the bank for us. (Thank you, Daddy.)


Thank you so much to everyone who participated in this year's bottle drive.

It is a lot of work, but it is worth it!

"If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death,

and those that are ready to be slain;

If thou sayest,

Behold, we knew it not;

doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it?

and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it?

and shall not he render to every man according to his works?"

Proverbs 24:11, 12
