Friday is going to be where I share a Random Act of Kindness (RAK) our family has done during the week. We like to do small things, preferably child led, for someone else. This week I am sharing about my son Thaddeus and his homeless blessing bags. This all began because on his drive to the clinic for his leukemia treatments we pass by many homeless people. They have always bothered his sweet heart and he has been looking for a way to help them. When we began discussing his birthday he decided in lieu of gifts he would ask for donations from a list he created so he could make blessing bags to keep in the car to pass out to homeless people who cross his path. With help from the Bishop Gorman Football players he was able to collect enough items to make 38 bags! We will be adding a Bible from Stephanie's Wish (Stephanie felt called to pass out one million Bibles to people who had lost hope) to each bag and then passing them out to homeless people around the valley.
If you would like to learn more about Stephanie and the wish her parents are working hard to fulfill in her memory go to...
