Some cool ideas...


 So, I've got some new ideas of things to do with FNL, but I don't have the money to do all of them.  I'd like to take the group out to do various fun activities / community projects like:

Read these like a MasterCard commercial...
- Going ice skating (about $70 for the whole group to go for one hour)
- Going bowling (about $60 for the whole group to go for two hours)
- Having some kind of outreach downtown to little kids with drama, baloons, and stuff (cost would be materials for skit props, baloons/pump, games, candy)
- Caroling (no cost here! = D)... Christmas is coming up, but I need to learn some Ukrainian Christmas carols... haha.  It would be interesting to see if we could set up a table downtown and carol and pass out hot beverages and talk to people about Jesus...  (maybe $20)
- Passing out clothing to the homeless (unknown - there are many thrift shops around the city... we'd pick up clothes there one evening and then go another evening to pass them out)
- Picking a random area downtown and picking up trash (materials to buy - trash bags, gloves for the whole group $10-30)
- Going around downtown and talking to people about Jesus (obviously, this wouldn't cost much money except for transport, which runs about $12 for the group when we take the bus)

I don't really want to ask the Ukrainians to pay for this stuff, because most of them are already struggling Financially.



If you have more ideas or would like to contribute, e-mail me at dsnead@ccbci.org (or just click on the Support the Work page), but make sure you send me an e-mail letting me know the money is for the FNL activities.  Otherwise, I'll probably spend it on groceries.  =)
