Saving and Sharing for Christ

My son, Jonah, making a donation to Sylvania Area Family Services with his own money!

As most of you know I am a huge advocate for feeding the hungry and today my heart is full of joy!! I have seven wonderful children that God has blessed me with and I am so thankful he entrusted me to be their mom (some growing in my belly, some growing in my heart, but all MY kids on loan from God). We are a family of many different ethnicities and we know we are unique, but my kids’ know what it means to be loved and to show compassion to others. My 8-year-old son, Jonah, has been saving his money for some time for some video games.  We have also raised our kids that they  know that 10% of what they earn they have to give to either church or a charity that they want to help. Last night Jonah heard me talking about the amazing Kroger sales and said he wanted to use some of his money to help feed the hungry!! Okay, I won’t lie, I was beaming from ear to ear as it was one proud Momma moment. Jamie, my husband, took Jonah to Kroger today to load up on all the sale stuff. Jonah was able to donate 30 boxes of items to Sylvania Area Family Services – my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE place to donate!!

**Here is Jonah giving his donations to Danielle, my friend, who works for Sylvania Area Family Services!**

My youngest four have NEVER known what it was like to be hungry like my oldest three do so to teach them  how important it is to give back and one day to see them “get it” just does my heart good. THANK YOU JESUS!! I am blessed by each and everyone of my kids and proud of  ALL of them !! Jonah, we are proud of you buddy!! Way to be the IMAGE OF CHRIST in giving.  Matthew 25:40!
