Wishful Waiting

Here is a picture of Paul's beautiful flowers. He grew these flowers and they flourished all summer. He also took this picture. We wanted to post this today to remind us that spring and flowers are on the way.

FEBRUARY PROJECT

Crumley House has designated helping homeless individuals and families as their "Helping Others" group for February. We brainstormed as a group and lots of great ideas were shared. Putting the ideas together, we decided that we would like to create a "Valentine's Day Party in a Box" to send to the Kitchen of Hope in Kingsport. June and Jerry have contacts there and can deliver the box for us. We will make the items for the box next Thursday. If anyone has any ideas of things we could make to put in the box, please add them to the comments section. We love all ideas!

CARDS AND BOOKMARKS FOR SENIORS

We finished up the cards and bookmarks yesterday and decided that we wanted to send half of them to the John Reed Nursing Home and the other half to the Senior Citizen's Center in Jonesborough. Carrie offered to take them to John Reed and Jil took them to the Senior's Center. The Senior's Center was very happy to receive them and told Jil that Crumley and the Senior's Center should try to schedule a picnic together when the weather gets nicer! This was a very successful first month of the Helping Others project.

FEBUARY - HOMELESS INDIVDIALS AND THEIR FAMILIES.

JANUARY PROJECT

Due to the rough weather we have been having, we have gotten a little behind in our Helping Others project for January. We made cards and bookmarks last Thursday and will finish them up next week, before starting on our February project which will be geared for helping the homeless and homeless families. Our next step is going to be signing the cards and choosing who we will send them to in the community.

JANUARY

For the month of January, Crumley House will be doing a project for senior citizens. We discussed the different things that we could do and decided to make greeting cards and bookmarks for seniors in nursing homes and senior citizen centers. Let us know if you have any other ideas.
