"...Faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead." James 2:17
CENTS ABILITY
Cents Ability started April 25th with the collection
boxes being handed
out to the children and ended
May 23rd.
In the brief time that we participated in the
Cents Ability program, we raised $249.50 (as of
June 27th). Just think what can be done if we as individuals continued this practice to raise money
to feed the hungry throughout
the year. This shows
what a difference one person,
family, group or congregation can make.
Cents Ability is a small step in the battle against
hunger and poverty. Everyone
was invited to
contribute a few cents at every meal. This simple
act was an
expression of thanks for what we have
received. It was also a commitment to
share with
others in response to Jesus' command "You give
them something to
eat."
When
the children brought their offerings to
the church
on May 23rd, all
of those coins" made a joyful
noise unto the Lord" as they
were received
and
dedicated.
