Carol Walker left a comment for Mollie"Hey Mollie,
How are you? I've been meaning to e-mail you since SF. It was so good to see you again. We're all fine, staying busy. I've been wondering if you still have the picture of all of us that you took that night in SF, if you…"
Profile Information
- Why I'm choosing to give:
- I think the 29-Day Giving Challenge is an interesting idea. I am excited to get started on my own challenge. As a Christian I believe that it is our duty to share what we have and help others when we can. The challenge is a great way to do both. It will be fun to come up with creative ways to give to others.
- About me:
- I am a newly retired Kindergarten teacher, I am in my first year of retirement and am enjoying it a great deal. I volunteer at the local hospital several hour a week, lead a Bible study group, am active in several organizations and serve on the Library Board of Trustees and several committees in my church. I have three grown daughters and two grandchildren,which I am lucky enough to see often. My husband and I have just sold our business, Walker Pharmacy, which we have had for 33 years. He will continue working as a staff pharmacist. My hobbies include stamping, reading and walking. I am also the leader of our local Weight Watchers group.

My Giving Story
Posted on May 18, 2008 at 8:54pm 4 Comments 0 Likes
When my daughter, Cami, (yes I am Cami's mom), first told me about the 29 Day Giving Challenge, I was immediately interested. However I really didn't count on it affecting my life as it has. I am naturally a caregiver type of personality so I give all the time, however much of the time I wasn't thinking about what I was doing. As I started the challenge I found that it was mostly quite easy, but as I begin to really pay attention to what I was doing and giving I started to see a change. Of… Continue

I have a friend who is going on a mission trip this summer, she has her money but some of the others do not have all of theirs. They also need materials for their trip, they will be directing Bible School for the children in the places they will be going. I sent her a check to add to their fund.

It has taken me awhile to get back to post my last two days of giving. Day 28 I donated to my churches youth group. They are going on a mission trip this summer and needed more support.

I finished my letter to my aunt and included pictures of the grandkids. I also sent some papers that Cami and Mark need and enclosed a small journal as a gift to Cami.

I helped with a shower for a friend who had a baby.
As I have looked back at the past week--I really began to realize that I really had hit a wall in my giving, I mentioned it earlier, but thought I had gotten past it. I preach and preach to my kids to "Let go and let God" when they have problems and then I do just the opposite. I had to have a diagonistic mamogram done this week and next Monday I have to have my wisdom teeth pulled. I have gotten so wrapped up in those personal… Continue
