Giving Hearts

by: Chad Zunker - Director of Men & Mission's Ministries

LHC Missions ended the year with a huge bang! I love to see the way God uses His people to reach out to those in need. Take a look at just a couple of the amazing ways our people served this December.

1) We had 25 “families-in-need” personally adopted by loving families (or life groups) in our church. We even had dads out browsing through Wal-marts and Targets buying specialty items for kids who would have otherwise not had presents this year. There were so many very touching stories of families sharing Christmas with their sponsored family.

2) The LHC community picked up over 600 Giving Tree gift tags for the children of the Austin Children’s Shelter and the Pan de Vida Orphanage in Mexico. It took a huge trailer to haul the gifts to each place. And over $5900 worth of gift cards were also purchased. We can’t tell you what an incredible difference this makes in the lives of these kids.

Thanks to all of you who participated in some way. You helped give somebody loved by God a very special Christmas this year.
