Entry 5

I met Sister Mary at her house this morning. She needed my station wagon to bring a ton of coats to school for a coat give-away. A mother at a local private school took up a collection for the children at the inner-city school and was able to provide a large number of coats. Sister Mary sent fliers home with students and contacted some families directly to let them know about the coats. She also asked teachers to identify students in particular need. The coats were very nice. There were all sizes and styles. Some were winter coats and a few were lighter. Clothing bars were set up and the coats were placed on hangers. I wasn't able to attend the actual give-away.
