MERRY CHRISTMAS! What a fun and busy week! We held 6 Christmas parties in 4 days and gave goodie bags to the 140 or so kids who attended them. We handed out presents to 153 of our kids – birth through high school. We ate over 1000 chicken nuggets from Chick-fil-A, too many cookies to …
We spent the month of October continuing to look at the parables Jesus told. They’re such a great way for our kids to understand what the Kingdom of God is all about. We also took advantage of some warm weather while we still have it. We’ll finish up our parable series in November, and then …
We’d love for you to join us at our annual Year-End Celebration Dinner. Enjoy a free meal with us as we say thank you for the ways you’ve helped us impact lives and offer hope this past year. We’ll share what lies ahead for Mission 2540 and how you can partner with us in 2018. …
