For your consideration, "Giving Tuesday" suggestions, Part #2

There's been plenty of 'getting' this past week, what with Black Thursday/Friday and Cyber Monday and all their attendant craziness. So maybe it's time to take a short break from it all ... and practice a little 'giving.' You may end up with something that will last a lot longer, and touch a lot more lives a lot more deeply than that television or video game you stayed up all night to get.

For your consideration, may I offer you some giving alternatives to the last few days' frenzy of getting? Via West Texas Missioner's Twitter feed, here are some ideas that really do capture the true spirit of the Thanksgiving/Christmas season.
