God is working through you!
"Everyone Bring $1" bought 6 frozen turkeys for families in need!
And 24 youth & adults raked 9 yards!
The homeowners are SO, SO grateful. One neighbor was so moved by your act of love that she gave us all the money she had on hand, then went to the bank to get more. (We used some to pay for Mama Santa's, the rest we will put towards the mission trip.) Praise God!
