-- -- give online site map contact SIM Do you need hope? Get Involved Now -- Creative Gifts Did you know that you can give things like a used car or computer to help world missions? Well, you can! SIM is prepared to receive “gifts in kind,” which simply means non-monetary gifts. These gifts are then turned into practical results for world missions. Here are a few ideas: Computers or computer-related equipment may be valuable to our SIM-TEC team. Please send an email to SIM-TEC.EquipmentConsultant@sim.org or visit our SIM-TEC website . Your postage stamps can be mailed to Derek Porter at 4114 Nigeria Road, Sebring, FL 33875 or SIM New Zealand at P.O. BOX 38 588, Howick, NZ. These stamps are sold and the money given to SIM ministries. United States farmers or ranchers may give a crop or livestock towards advancing world missions. You may also sponsor a crop or livestock and profits from their sale will go towards a SIM ministry. Please contact Dennis Maloney at 918-285-0410 for more information or view the website of Steer, Inc. . Medical or dental equipment and supplies may be donated through your nearest SIM sending office . Please contact the SIM office before sending your gift. Investments such as appreciated stocks, mutual funds, or real estate may also become a gift to SIM, eligible for charitable income tax deduction in the United States. Please contact your nearest SIM Sending Office for more details. For any other product donation or creative giving opportunities, please contact your nearest SIM Sending Office . SIM is not able to accept all types of non-monetary gifts, but only those for which there is an existing need. So please contact us first to discuss if your gift could meet a need in world missions. We look forward to hearing from you! "We always pray for you, and we give thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, for we have heard that you trust in Christ Jesus and that you love all of God's people. You do this because you are looking forward to the joys of heaven - as you have been ever since you first heard the truth of the Good News. This same Good News that came to you is going out all over the world. It is changing lives everywhere, just as it changed yours that very first day you heard and understood the truth about God's great kindness to sinners."

birthday present. May: (Dejectedly)
The Best Present in the World The BestPresent in the World The following Readers' Theatre script was adapted from "The very best present in the world" written by PenelopeBender. It was rewritten by Pansy Koh Hwee Lin, Kow Hui Meng,Jamunah Rani and Lam May Yuen to suit the Singapore context. Narrator: Today is her mother's birthday and May isvery troubled because she does not have enough money to buy her muma present. May: 75, 80, 85 cents. (Sigh!) This is only enough tobuy the bottlecap of Mummy's favourite Chanel No. 5 perfume.What am I going to do? Narrator: May flips through the New Paper and saw a hugeadvertisement. May: (Reading the newspaper aloud) Guess the number ofCoke cans contest. 12 - 3 p.m. Grand prize: $200. Winner will beannounced at 3:30 p.m. today. Wow! That's just what I need... if only I could win ... Narrator: May went down to Cold Storage to join thecontest. May: What a huge crowd gathering around the contestarea! Wait a minute. Isn't that my classmate, Janice? Narrator: May walked up to Janice. May: Hi, Janice, what are you doing here? Janice: Hi, May! I came to join the contest. May: Me too. I'm going to get the contest formnow. See you later! May: (Thinking aloud) Gosh! There are rows and rows ofCoke cans piled up high like a pyramid. How am I going to startcounting them? Narrator: After hesitating for a very long time, May finallydecided to make her guess. May: I think I'll write 9,999 cans on the contestform. Please God ... please let that be the lucky number! Narrator: After dropping the entry form into the box, Maywaited impatiently for the results to be announced. At 3:30 p.m.,the emcee stood up and announced that the number of Coke cans wasNine thousand, nine hundred ... May held her breath ... andninety-nine. May: I won! I won! Narrator: May collected her prize joyfully. As she walkedout of Cold Storage, she met Janice again at the bus-stop. May: Oh, Janice! I won the grand prize! I'm goingto Takashimaya now to get a present for my mum. It's herbirthday. Janice: (Sadly) I'm very happy for you. May: (Concerned) But, you don't sound very happy. Is anythingwrong? Janice: (Sobbing) My ... my ... mother is very ill at home and shecan't get out of bed. I went to the clinic near my house butDr. Tan would not make house calls unless I pay $200. Butwe've no money. I'm really afraid of losing mum.She's all I have since daddy passed away. May: (In deep thought) Oh, dear! That's terrible. (A shortpause) What do you intend to do? Janice: I don't know. Narrator: May gazed at the prize money in her purse. After deliberatingfor a short while, she pressed the money into Janice'shands. May: Here, take this. Go and get Dr. Tan right away! Janice: But ... but ... you need this for your mum's birthdaypresent. May: Don't worry, it's okay. She'llunderstand. Janice: Oh! Thank you so much! Thank you so much! I'm sure my mumwill pay you back when she gets well. Narrator: Janice rushed back to her mum while May walked home slowly. Sheis happy that she had done a good deed but worried about hermother's birthday present. May: (Dejectedly) What should I do? I still don't have anypresent for Mum's birthday. Guess I'll just make a cardfor her. The card won't mean much without a present but ...it'll have to do. Narrator: That night, at the birthday party, May'sbrother gave their mother a gold necklace and her sister gave hermum a Versace bag. May: Mummy, I wanted to give you a present, but thiscard is all I have. Mother: But, May ... You've already given me apresent. Janice called and told me what you had done. You see,sweetheart, all the presents in the world wouldn't mean asmuch to me as knowing that you've understood what I'vebeen teaching you. May: What's that, Mummy? Mother: How to love, May. And that's the bestpresent in the whole world that any child could ever give to aparent. May: Do you mean it, Mummy? I wanted so much to giveyou the very best present in the world. Mother: Of course, I do, sweetheart. You have indeed givenme the very best present in the whole world and I'm veryproud of you! May: Oh ... Oh! Mummy, I'm so happy!

Shower Gift
Baby Shower Gift Idea Home Search DLTK's Crafts for Kids Baby Shower Gift Idea This fun idea is from www.gratefulbaby.com Diaper Cake Recipe To make you will need: 40-50 newborn diapers (or more depending on how big you want the cake) 2 baby bottles 2 receiving blankets 2 cloth diapers or burp rags 1 large package of various sized rubber bands ribbon to tie around the cake and hide the rubber bands Small baby items to decorate the cake Start by wrapping a diaper, opened lengthwise (but not with the tabs fanned out) around one of the baby bottles. Wrap another diaper around and so on, securing with a rubber band whenever necessary. When you have the desired width for the bottom layer, begin a new layer on top of it, making it slightly smaller than the bottom. Do this again with the top two layers, wrapping around the 2nd bottle. When finished it should look like a four tier wedding cake. Wrap the receiving blankets around the bottom two layers and the cloth diapers or burp rags around the top two. Secure again with a rubber band. Use the ribbon to tie around each layer, hiding the rubber bands. Stick the various baby items inside the ribbon to decorate. Then, add a topper such as a small toy. You may need more or less diapers depending on what size you want the cake. Diaper Cake Poem 1 Heres a cake for your special day, Because the stork is on her way. Its filled with lots of things for you, On the outside and inside, too. Place them in your diaper bag, So all the necessities you will have. For the big day soon will come, When you can show off your little one! MORE poems for your Diaper Cakes here: http://www.gratefulbaby.com/baby-gifts
