Thirty Days

It was a beautiful autumn Sunday, with a marvelous showing of donors ringing food, winter clothing, blankets, and other cold-weather necessities. I commented to Minister Steve that I was pleased to see so many people; he explained that this is indeed the norm for weekends in December.

Today, according to the Internet, and likely intended as a foil for Black Friday and Cyber Monday, is “Giving Tuesday.” http://community.givingtuesday.org/Page/FAQ

And then, I saw this little comic strip in my Facebook feed:

So, just something to think about: where will the poor and needy be once the Christmas tree is back in storage, the stockings are removed from the mantle, and the holiday spirit fades?

The answer: they will still be around.

Will you?
