Shoes, Shoes, and more Shoes
So NewSpring Church had the opportunity this week to be a blessing to four elementary schools around each of the NewSpring campuses. We were able to provide shoes and socks to every kid that wanted them for this Christmas season. We had the privilege to partner with New Prospect Elementary in Anderson, Alexander Elementary in Greenville, Harbison West Elementary in Columbia, and North Vista Elementary in Florence. We had the chance to put over 1,500 pair of New Balance tennis shoes on kids’ feet and simply display the love of Jesus. It was such a blast and I am sure, the NewSpring volunteers got as much a blessing from seeing the smiles on kids’ faces as the kids got with a new pair of shoes. It is such a neat thing to be apart of a church that wants to help out the community that we live.
A few of the schools had the chance to make the local evening news. WYFF in Greenville and WIS in Columbia. How cool is that?
