Blankets & Bears Christmas Tree

This is a christmas tree donation drive that a church in Lousiana. Just this week we received two large boxes from their drive. Love the idea and the love from this church! We met up with the church on a multiple church mission trip to Laredo with Brother Price Harris earlier this year. Thanks Brother Richard Kaufman and members of the Martin Baptist Church!
