Give-A-Way

it is freezing here in Sallisaw! Lots of ice and cold weather. Hopefully it will start to warm up soon! I like sunny warm days, oh man they are great! I get all excited and motivated on nice days!!!

We started a new ministry with the students called, "Give-A-Way" We are collecting non perishable food items, household supplies, etc... all month. We are challenging the students to go out and get items then bring it in each week under the foot of the cross in the Zone. We have been hooked up with a family in our county that is in great need. A thirteen year old boy is living with his grandparents that were taking care of him then his grandfather passed away leaving just his grandmother and him. They do not have much means for basic needs and they are just in a really hard place right now. So we are going to collect as much stuff as we can then bless the socks off of them and bring them a whole kitchen full of items. We are going to take a team out the 1st or 2nd Saturday of each month and do this to various families that are in need. We are teaching the students multiple things such as: Being a blessing to others, giving, reaching out, elevating your community and those God has put around you, etc... We are super excited about getting into our community with our students and giving a way for people to experience God's provision and love for them.
