Recently the anonymous "gold coin" donor has visited a Salvation Army kettle in Mebane, North Carolina. This random person has repeatedly dropped coins like this in Salvation Army kettles in this area for a few years. A few days after he drops the coin, he does call anonymously to make sure the coin arrived safely to the Salvation Army. The coin this year was an Australian Kangaroo $100 gold piece which is estimated to have a value of $1,200. Captain Jimmy Taylor with the Salvation Army once again thanked the donor for his generosity and how he donates in such a fun and unique way.
Following my post from yesterday, this is a great example of how people should be during the holiday season. We should always remember the people that need our help year round, but especially in this time of year that people are always giving. Try to remember what Jesus told us to do and take time to help the others around. Even if you can't afford to donate a lot of money, you can donate your time to help out at a soup kitchen or volunteer to be one of the bell ringers for the Salvation Army. Once again, remember the true reason for the season!
How would one go about becoming a "bell ringer" for them?
