Social Service Sunday: Comfort Dolls for the Rescue Center

This Sunday we made Comfort Dolls (or Poupe Konfo) as our Social Service Sunday project. We will send them to the sick kids at the Rescue Center.
Everyone had lots of fun doing this. And they are SO EASY. Just 4 knots, and a knot for the head. Clip the fleece into hair, and there ya go! They are soft and easy to wash, and no parts to come off and swallow. No sewing, either.

Some of the kids wanted to stay late and make more and more dolls! They braided the "hair," and even made "bonnets" for them out of small scrap material.

89 dolls total were made. A great success!

We also raised another $26 dollars in Spirited Worship for Haiti. Won't you please donate a dollar or two to help match our funds? ALL MONEY goes to Haiti.

We hope to hear more soon about the UUSC's potential work trip to Haiti. Our Youth Group really wants to go, and so do I!

Blessings!
