CHRISTMAS OUTREACH UPDATES
Thank you so much, Redemption Hill Church family, for your remarkable response to the needs of people in our community! Your donations have made a huge difference this Christmas season!
As you know, we were not able to ask members/attenders to bring non-perishable items this year for our Christmas "boxes" for people in need due to COVID-19. So, we instead asked our church family to make a donation in the amount they usually spend to purchase these items. Wow! You gave way above and beyond!! To date, you have given $4,193.00. Deacons & their wives and staff members have purchased both perishable and non-perishable groceries and delivered them to families in need. It was such a privilege and joy to deliver these "boxes!" It was also a very powerful witness to those who received the Christmas boxes!
We also collected toys and clothes for children at Will Rogers Elementary School. We have been so blessed with our partnership with this school! Again, you responded with amazing generosity. Last week, we drove a pick-up truck and SUV filled with toys and clothes for children who would not have had a Christmas! Again, your generosity has been a powerful witness to families as well as the staff at Will Rogers.
Acts 20:35 quotes JESUS: "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Thank you, Redemption Hill Church family, for embracing and modeling this truth! To GOD be the glory!! And MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
