Here's the important thing!
Every year at the Thanksgiving Love Feast we take up a special offering to express our gratitude and to make a difference in the world.
Think about this.
Instead of going out for a special meal, we save what we might have spent, feed each other instead, and pool our savings to pass on to those in need!
Some of us might spend $5.00 going out for a meal, and some of us might spend $50.00. Whatever it is, save it, bring it, and we'll pass it on, together!
If 50 of us give $25 each, that's $1,250!!
And maybe you could double your gift. Wouldn't it be wonderful to send $2,000 to relieve the suffering in the world? We can do it.
Yes we can.
Cash, Check, or Credit Card. It all works.
