Beanie Baby Project
The story goes...there was a convoy traveling in Iraq and a small girl was sitting in the road and would not move. The soldiers stopped and carefully got out of their vehicles and approached the child. She had a Beanie Baby and would not say a word but continuously pointed to the side of the road. As the soldiers looked carefully, they discovered a bomb that was meant for them to drive over. Some soldier had given her a Beanie Baby and she new they must be okay folks. Think of the lives that small gesture saved. God does use the little things in our world to confuse and to conquer. Mrs. Reavis is collecting new or gently used Beanie Babies. There are boxes outside rooms A207, B213 and in the lobby.
