Children's Resale at WMC

This morning my alarm went off at 6:30. Regardless of what you may think 6:30 is very early for me. I'm lucky that Katylynn's wake up time is 7:30-8:00.

Anyway, the alarm went off and Derry had to hit me. It's funny that a beeping alarm doesn't wake me up anymore, but a little girl laughing does. I guess its all what you train yourself to.

I was at Mindy's house by 7 and we were off to get some tea and then to Wakarusa Missionary Church to the children's resale. I heard it was pretty amazing, but WOW. .SO COOL!!

They hit it out of the park in many ways.

1. The organization and flow of the event was very well organized. There were TONS of people there and from an outsiders view, it ran smoothly
2. Meeting the needs of your community. They definitely met the needs of their neighbors and what was cool they did it with so much grace and love. The church was being the church. Serving, loving and meeting needs
   
3. Serving & Loving People. This is coupled with the previous one, but every staff person was calm, helpful and just serving away. I never saw anyone stressed out or frustrated among their staff.
4. They graciously gave information about their church in a non-threatening way. They attached a sheet to the receipt that gave info for the next sale as well as the programs that would be applicable for parents.

From one who has organized and help run large events, I understand how difficult it can be.

THEY HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK!

Great Job Waky!
