In Luke 3 John the Baptizer is preaching to people who have followed him in the desert to hear his message of repentance and forgiveness. When they ask what they can do to demonstrate their repentant heart he says, "The man with two coats should share with him who has none, and the one who has food should do the same."
Here are two great websites based on this principle:

Especially those moms & dads who find their homes littered with stuffed animals may appreciate the Beanies for Baghdad. Your toys go to aid a very real operation. Emma had a great time picking out stuffed animals to fill a big box. We just sent it today!

I appreciate your thoughts on this Carol. we actually had had Malachai sit with us this year and choose the items (he was partial to the chickens and milk) we wanted to give through Samaritan's Purse. it was good!
