Our church had a huge community day today.
EVERYTHING was free to the public and we had a ton of stuff for kids.
We had games, food, inflatables, egg hunts etc.
The only problem was, after all our hardwork, it was suppose to rain.
Well, first thing that morning, about 8am, Mary opens a fortune cookie.
Contents of fortune cookie: It can't rain all the time.
As more people arrived at the church concerned about rain, we shared this simple occurence and it overjoyed everyone. We were surprised at the reactions we received. A simple cookie lifted a lot of spirits.
The Community Day was to last from 10-4. We had beautiful sunshine and no rain until about 2:30, so we simply packed up early, but about 400 non-church members came and won prizes. It exceeded expectations and we were all tired by 2:30 anyway. Ending early was a blessing, haha.
