We are gearing up for this years Christmas Outreach! and we are supper excited! This will be our sixth annual Christmas outreach to our local communities, and what an awesome time to minister the true message of Christmas, which is the celebration of God sending Jesus to earth to reach and save the lost. Amen!
We are targeting the needy and the impoverished-reaching out to the “least of these.” We aim to be a blessing and share the love of Christ, material and spiritually. The Bible says, “Whoever is kind to the needy honors God.” Also, in the Bible, God exhorts us, to “do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share.” We are stepping out to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

We will bee targeting two local trailer courts and one area apartment complex. (Sunset Trailer Court, Village Green and Miami Hills) All of these places are areas in which we have built an accord with and know many of the residents that live there through past outreaches.
Our plan is to invite families of these areas to attend a free Christmas Party that we will have at our local Church.
At this free Christmas party we will serve a dinner and desert. We will have live Christmas music being played while people eat. The team of us will be loving on folk and ministering to everyone who attends. Our desire is to bless everyone who attends with a gift. The children will receive a very nice gift, every family will be blessed with a $15.00 gift card to a local grocery store, for the purpose of buying themselves a Christmas meal for their family, every teenager will receive a gift card to a local restaurant.
After the meal we will have a time of singing, then we will pass out the presents to the children, followed by a preaching message to the people ministering on the true meaning of Christmas. We will close it all with altar time and prayer, trusting the Holy Spirit to draw people to repent and get right with the Lord. We are expecting a great time.
Would you please pray for this outreach and intercede for the Lord to draw the sinners to repentance. The whole purpose of this outreach is to share the love of Jesus and see people get right with the Lord.
We are expecting 130 people to be attending so the budget for this event is approximately $1600. We prayerfully ask you to consider donating toward this outreach. For those who would like to donate: $10.00 this will buy one gift for a child, $15.00 will purchase one gift card for a family meal. Any size donation will be accepted as it all will all go toward this Christmas Outreach.
