It Has Been Quiet

 It has been very quiet at our house on the Compassion front.   We received only one letter during the month of January, here is hoping they will come flooding into my mailbox in February!!   Although today did not bring any letters,  we did receive some fun mail today.   


We ordered Compassion t-shirts for everyone in our family because we have been on the Compassion Advocacy site and have been fortunate to find some events happening practically in our backyard!   I had expanded our search to 100 miles because for a long time, there was nothing nearby.   Now we have three events on the calendar with a possibility of a fourth!   I am so very excited and will definitely write about each one as they happen.  



The kids are so excited about their new shirts, they want to wear them to school tomorrow, how can I say no?!?!

    1. How fun! That was the shirt Addy picked. She wore it to school on Thursday and said her friends liked it. :) I was so excited to find so many events so close!

  2. I found your blog from Jill's Compassion Family blog list. What a fun package to arrive in the mail! We have been in a letter drought also. Only one letter in January, really hoping to find lots in the mail this month! Have you worked events before? My son and I have worked quite a few. They are such a blessing to work!

    1. Yvonne, Thanks for stopping by! We have worked events before, and I love the opportunity to work them. We have had the wonderful opportunity to host Compassion Sundays at our church, this year will be the third year in a row, and I have worked an event at a conference that was held in our area. Tonight is the first on our list of events, and we are taking our children, they are so excited!
