Overdue Thank You

We've been taking a long look at being a church that loves in big, Godly ways. When we love, we give hope to others. We are a church family that is committed to our calling to Love God and Love Our Winters Community.

A few weeks ago we had a "Love Does Much" meeting. Anyone was invited to join in prayer, brainstorming and implementation of some big, Godly ways we as a church family can share real, genuine love to our community. In other words, find ways that we as a church can pass out hope through our loving actions.

It was an awesome turn out that was truly spirit led.

This group came up many ways that we can be engaged in loving works. We decided to take on two of them immediately as we approach the holidays. Providing basics for families to make a traditional Thanksgiving meal and helping provide Christmas gifts for children. Both of these efforts are directly aimed to loving people right here in Winters.

What an amazing response!

We had our Thanksgiving meals sign ups out for two days. Filled up. Families ready to provide and give to show God's big love. Families ready to love so that hope that changes can be known.

I wanted to simply say, "Thank you." I am so blessed to be a part of this church family and to see the loving example of our mission being lived out right now.

Love truly does much. His church is doing much.
