Buy a Wreath and Help a Poor Struggling...Oh, You Got Me...Help John Allen!


John Allen is at it again. He's selling Christmas wreaths from Wreaths of Maine! This is his fourth year selling and he loves doing it. These beautiful wreaths are made from Balsam Fir trees. But, they don't just sell wreaths, they sell swags, sprays...even roping for around your porch posts. They are great for decorating businesses, homes, or to give away as gifts.


The first year John Allen sold he donated his profits to help buy homeschool supplies for our family homeschool. Another year he (with a little help from us) bought himself a laptop computer. This year has been really special, he's been talking about all of the gifts he can buy for the family for Christmas. He's even mentioned the gifts he can buy for our pastor's twin boys.



Wreaths of Maine is a company that primarily works with homeschool kids as a way to help them earn money. I found them when I was looking for something for John Allen to sell and make a little money on his own. I remember selling all kinds of things when I was younger - from Christmas cards to green mints. I learned so much from being a salesman. I really think it has helped John Allen build confidence in speaking to others as well.


We would love it if you would consider buying a wreath. Although we would like to be able to come to your house to tell you about them personally, we can't be everywhere at once, so this year Wreaths of Maine has made a way for you to purchase a wreath online and John Allen still get the credit. Just go to the Wreaths of Maine website by clicking here or on any one of the hi-lighted links above and look over their great wreaths. When you get to checkout, there will be a place where you can click on John Allen's name and seller number (4086). Thanks ahead of time from a proud father!

  1. Congratulations on doing great work - and the wreaths look wonderful! Please forgive making contact this way, but I couldn't find a way to send you a message. I would like to introduce you to the work I do to assist non-profit organizations. My site is at www.ClickBuyHelp.org.

    I help groups earn commissions from the online purchases made by their supporters. The wreaths look great, but I'm not selling anything. The 13 groups that are participating are benefiting from the purchases being made "already."

    Please take a look and if you would like to participate, there's no cost and no obligation. You promote your page on my site and I do all the "behind the scenes" work.

    Best regards,

  2. Hey Tim! What a beautiful family! I love your header. I couldn't see your pictures on your old one very well. Anyway, forgive my ignorance, but didn't you do a google +1 button? I have been tryiing to, but for the life of me, I am just not able to figure out all of the details. I was thinking you sent an e-mail awhile back about it, but now I can't find it. Thank you so much for your work in God's kingdom! I know you are laying "lots of treasures up in heaven".

    God Bless,

  4. Thanks PJ. I'm not sure what I am doing with Google+ either. It's still all Greek to me. I get on it every once in a while to work with it, but I don't have a lot of time to play with it right now. Maybe soon. If you can figure it all out, let me know. Was there something particular that you were having problems with? I can't remember. I'll have to go look up my email.

    Tim
