The Teen Girls Clubs (Friends, grades 6 - 8, and Girls Only , Grades 9 - 12) spent all day Saturday in the church kitchen baking cookies. We baked well over 1,000...we had 500 bags, each of which had 2 - 6 cookies in it (depending upon the size of the cookies and who was bagging them...)
We set up a table in the church lobby/fellowship hall and sold the cookies for a suggested donation of $1/bag to raise funds for a young lady who is in Moldova for a year, working with the Stella's Voice ministry.At the end of all three services, we had 12 bags of cookies left and I'm pretty sure we cleared about $500 for our missionary.
Then I came home and started doing the backed up laundry, which all has to be done ASAP as we're trying to get out of town to visit our parents.
When I get back, I get to work double hours again to make up for being gone. Not that the bosses are expecting that, but I'm only part time, so if I don't work I don't get paid. Not good for the budget.
So, maybe about the middle of August I can slow down a bit and catch my breath. And do some sewing... ;-)
