Send it to Smithville!

I've been MIA for a few weeks now.  That's no secret.  But, this past week the Lord opened up some awesome deals for me couponing.  (Yes, He does that!)  Now I see at least one of the reasons why.  Send it to Smithville!  We'll call this So, Here's the Deal's first ministry project for you coupon ladies.  Here it is:  Towns across the south have been devastated by the tornadoes that came through this past week.  Two thirds of Smithville, MS was completely destroyed.  Here's where you come in.  This week our Associational Missions Director from Alcorn county is making a trip to Smithville to take supplies that they need.  They are in need of toiletry items such as toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, soap, towels, washcloths, shaving items, etc.  They said they basically need things someone would need to get a shower and get cleaned up.  It just happens to be (we know that God is in control!) that there are numerous coupons coming out in the paper on Sunday that match up with Kroger sales to get toiletry items free to only $1.  This is what I'm asking:  Go get Sunday papers!  I'm buying 4 or 5 this week.  Your savings should far surpass what the paper costs.  Use the coupons to match the deals at Kroger to get some much needed items to send to Smithville.  Get your paper or papers, and Sunday I will be posting a list of match ups for some helpful items.  If you live in this area, you can bring the items to Glendale Baptist Church by this coming Wednesday or just get them directly to Bro. Kenny Digby by then.  He is going to take the items Thursday.  If you don't live in this area, purchase items like this anyway to get to your nearest disaster relief efforts.  We are called to share the Gospel in word and in DEED.  Let's put feet to our faith and share the love of Christ with those hurting in our state.

"So...whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."  1 Cor. 10:31 

Clip those coupons for the glory of God!
