300 Shoes for 300 Kids
10:58 AM
(That's 300 pairs of shoes for 300 kids...for all the jokesters!) :)
Last night we launched a major outreach for our church, “300 Shoes for 300 Kids”. It wasn’t an original idea…it wasn’t even my idea…but it is a God idea! It also couldn’t be at a better time for my church. Its purpose is two-fold really. We are right in the middle of a leadership transition and it’s easy to focus on that right now and not on what we should be focusing on…which is Jesus. He should always be the focus of the church…but sometimes transition can be a distraction…and sometimes distraction esculates into unproductiveness.
I don’t believe that is where God wants us. Transitions should never distract us from our original mission.
Acts 1:8
“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
So we are focusing our attention back on what God originally told us. To “go and be witnesses”…of His glory, of His grace, of His mercy, of His love, and of His patience…
Saying all of that…Does your child need shoes?
If you live in Marble Falls or any of its surrounding cities…call us today and get your kids on our list. We will be having a special service on December 20, Sunday night, at 5pm to hand them out!
Call us today!
