Some of you might recognize this Friends reference from the episode where Joey decides to put on all of Chandlers clothes: "Look at me--I'm Chandler! Could I BE wearing any more clothes? Maybe if I wasn't going commando! " Well last night, our community group did something similar. We decided to put on as many clothes as we could and then donate those clothes to various people in need (some locally, some across the country, and some in Uganda). I am continually amazed at the awesome things that can happen when people with the same heart for God work in unity toward a common purpose. And on top of that, we had FUN. We even had a contest to see who had the most clothes on and of the 8 people who participated in the judging, we had over 200 items of clothing on! Overall, we collected a mountain of trash bags full of clothes, shoes, etc (see below)
...and the prize for the clothes-wearing contest was pretty sweet as well ;)
Me, all dressed up and looking like a sumo wrestler
Everyone dressed up
Maybe the funnest part was watching everyone attempt to get all the clothes OFF (most of them needed help and luckily Brittani didn't mind helping a bit ;)...which earned her the quote "Why is Brittani the designated stripper?")
Little did we know what surprise Derek had waiting for us ;)
All in all it was a great evening, with great people, for a great cause....what more could you ask for?
