A Word About Hand-knitted Toques and Mitts
"We very much appreciate the effort and love that goes into knitting winter wear. However, a challenge for our adult community members--especially those experiencing homelessness--is keeping the hand-knitted toques and mitts dry, as well as drying them out after becoming wet. We happily accept hand-knitted items for the infants and small children who come through our doors. Blankets, mitts and toques are especially useful for the little ones. Thank you for your understanding and support." (Bissell News)
For those who want to make toques and mitts for adults we suggest going to "fleece products" as they are very thin and durable and warm. They can be easily wrung out and dried. Otherwise, maybe stick to children.
Stewardship
The call to follow Jesus encompasses our whole life. We are stewards and custodians of all that God has given us. It’s easy to understand that we are to manage our gifts and our wealth. But we are also stewards of the gospel message itself. We are called to be generous in giving away the message of God’s gracious love for all through Jesus Christ. Let us learn to share the story of Jesus’ invitation to the many who are burdened with life’s heavy loads. Jesus says, “Come to me.” We are stewards of this story.
