Christ became poor so that we might become rich. In light of this, a way to enter into the advent story this year is to give away what we have to those in need. This is the very nature of God…giving himself away relationally to us who are in need. Living in the imago dei, we should also become givers like this. What does this actually look like for us this year? How about not buying anything for someone that they don’t NEED? How about learning to give RELATIONALLY? There are huge needs in the world that we can redistribute the money we save towards. Here is a short list of places we will be sending money:
Local Initiatives:
1. Binsfield Middle School
2. Local Ministries (Refugees, 3 oClock People, etc)
Global Initiatives
1. Serve Life – Asia
-micro enterprise loan initiative
2. World Vision – South America
-providing Alpacas for long term income opportunities
3. World Vision – Africa
-wells
4. LaHash – Africa
-“Renew”; sex worker relief ministry in Kenya
2 Corinthians 8:1 - 15
