From a Church Librarians Network search, we have overlooked sharing what some of us are doing with greeting cards. We just started a team of card makers for our group leaders and In-Home Ministry visitors. It is led by Debbie Boyte. Once the word got out a few months ago that we we starting such a ministry, card makers both in our church and beyond our church family started donating cards. They are beautiful! Debbie met with the In-Home Ministry Team to explain this new service to them. Now we are looking for ways to connect with Group/Sunday School class leaders. Debbie purchased a perfect rack for the cards. I will take a picture and post it on Wednesday.
Can't wait to see what other churches are doing with card services to church leaders! Please share your ideas!

We have a rack like that gained from Lifeway when they closed in Montgomery, AL. We use it to display new books.
The big sign worked as a reminder to take the picture! Here's the picture of our card rack in a new location which is right inside the Enrichment Center door.
The card rack photo did not show, just the mumbo jumbo of letters for about 40 lines or so.
Sorry about that. I am adding a picture to see if it shows for you. Audrey, can you see it even though it may be a side view?

Is this showing right side up? Not finding a way to fix this. Sorry! I'll also add it to the above reply.
Yes, this one is good. It is a bit rotated,haha, but now we can see it. We use this one for DVDs and are looking for a second one, so that the DVDs can make room for mor
e books.
I totally forgot to take a picture of our new card rack. I now have a BIG sign for myself to remember to do so on Wednesday. Also, note that the North Alabama Library Conference on November 4 will have a session on how to have a Card Ministry for your church leaders. Click here.
