Today we dropped off all the stocking stuffers for the Area Employees. Comfort and I took the black cart that hauls loads in and out of the cars and up and down the elevator - over to the area office and then over to the MTC guard shack and then back to the AP apartments.
I feel very good about this project and love how many I was able to entice to add their touch. One, I went to the gathering place sewing class and recruited 2. Susie helped me think of and order two things from Amazon to bring back in October 3. Daniel in communications added his toffee candy. 4. Juliet added her peanuts 5. Gloria came over and helped me "stuff" the clear bags 6. Shauna added mint candies 7. Bobby got all the pens and pencils and brought the clear bags to stuff 8. Comfort helped me deliver the bags, the stop at the area office recruited two more - Mabel and her friend - who delivered the goods personally to each person in the area office building.
An idea born in July and finished in December.

Sorted, labeled, and ready to deliver |
Though it wasn't much - the stockings were only six inches tall - at least it is an acknowledgment of them.
The senior missionaries wanted stockings too. I said only those in the Area Office - as there are probably a hundred in the missions in Accra. I am sewing them up, but someone else is stuffing them - though I may have some extra stuff for the stuffing. We'll see.
