This is Nick.
Nick is a 2nd grader who attends my church, Shady Grove Church, with his parents.
For the last couple of years Nick has celebrated his birthday an unusual way. He has not asked for presents. Actually, I take that back,he hasn’t asked for presents for himself, he has asked for presents for the kids at the local Children’s Hospital. (Last year he was able to collect over 100 board games for the kids.)
This year, Nick wants to do something a little different. He collecting rainbow’s… not real rainbows of course, he wants to collect pictures of rainbows that people color and that he can hang in the rooms and hallways of the Children’s Hospital. Nick doesn’t want to just collect the rainbows though, he would also like to collect NEW boxes of markers and crayons he can pass out at the hospital as well.
Nicks goal is to collect 100 rainbows, boxes of crayons and markers. I think with your help, we can do better than that.
I would hope that everyone who reads this will get involved somehow. If you would like to make a donation you can either drop off the boxes of crayons and markers in the at Shady Grove Church or if you’re not a local, you can mail your donations to:

Nick’s Rainbow
C/O Shady Grove Church

I really hope everyone can help out with this. What an amazing lesson we can learn from Nick in living our lives for others. Way to go Nick!
