Heavenly Handbags: Christmas 2012 & More

If I take a moment and reflect on this season life has been full, sweet, joyous, adventurous and packed. Between all life's sweet demands I have not been able to tell you about the amazingly encouraging moments within this outreach, but please know my heart is dedicated to this outreach - donating stuffed handcrafted handbags to homeless and abused women in the community of Durango. Every contribution received goes directly into each handbag, literally, and I am open and listening for God's direction in this ministry.

With that I would like to invite you to participate in our December 2012 Heavenly Handbags Give. This is a fun and unique Give because we donate 30 Heavenly Handbags to the Durango Community Homeless Shelter and Southwest Safehouse as a Christmas gift to every women staying in the shelters. Imagine having nothing and receiving a thoughtful gift on Christmas morning that is especially for you. Think of the joy that comes from receiving such a special gift.

We have created a fun partnership this year, so there are multiple ways to give. Please consider donating to Heavenly Handbags this Christmas season in one of the following ways:

1. Donate Life Essentials :: below is a list of Life Essentials, items that pamper women, which are stuffed into each handbag. Shop for all the items on the list and donate the Life Essentials to Heavenly Handbags OR donate $12 and Heavenly Handbags will purchase all the necessary items.

2. Thirty-One Partnership :: Donate $25 to help purchase a unique handbag and stuff it too! We have partnered with Trisha Ross and Thirty-One to provide a fun bag for the women receiving a Heavenly Handbag this Christmas.

Please be apart of the miracle as we give 30 Heavenly Handbags to homeless and abused women this Christmas.
