How to make a Warm Fuzzy

1. Cut a piece of yarn, up to eight times the length of your arm. You can use less yarn if you'd like, but keep in mind—the longer the yarn, the bigger the Warm Fuzzy is going to be.

2. Using a 2- to 4-inch square of cardboard, a music CD, or three of your fingers, wrap the yarn around the object 50–100 times, not too tightly.

3. Pull the yarn off the the object, being careful to keep it together in a circle. Cut a shorter piece of yarn and tie it in a knot around the middle of the yarn circle. There should be lots of loops on both sides of the knot.

4. Take a pair of scissors and slide them through the loops to cut the loops apart. Be sure to get loops on both sides of the knot cut.

6. Fluff up your Warm Fuzzy.

Dear Parishes,

As many of you know, on March 19, Lindsay and Tom McKinnon's home burned down, taking their two beautiful sons' (Patrick and Logan) lives. Lindsay is a former assistant Youth Coordinator in our diocese. All who have heard about the McKinnon’s loss have been heart-sickened, with many asking what they can do to help and show the McKinnons their support.

Lindsay grew up in the Diocese of North Carolina and was very active in Happening. When she was a youth minister here in our diocese, she encouraged many of our youth to go to Happening. It truly is a life-changing spiritual experience. During a Happening Weekend, there is something special and tangible that is given to Happeners—they are given a “Warm Fuzzy” to let them know how much they are truly loved.

Let's flood the McKinnons with that love we feel for them by making them Warm Fuzzies. (See directions in the next column.) Once yours is done, mail it me and I will forward it to Beth Crow (another of our former diocesan Youth Coordinators, who is now in Raleigh). She will get them to the McKinnons.

My address is 183 Fairystone Homeplace, Bassett, VA 24055. If you have questions, my phone is 276.224.6080. You may also email any sentiments that you would like to pass on to the McKinnons to [email protected], and they will be sent right along with the Warm Fuzzies.

We would like to get all the Warm Fuzzies collected and given to Beth soon. She will bring them to the McKinnons after April 15th.

Thank you for your help and kindness in this time of great tragedy for the McKinnons.

Peace,

Deb NortonChrist, Martinsville
