Much is required...
A biblical truth that can sometimes be scary if you don't handle responsibility well. The parable of the talents teaches us that obedience results in the reward of even more responsibility. Why am I talking about this? God continues to bless Christian HELP. Through people like you, we have learned that if we are good stewards of what we are blessed with, God gives us more.
If we handle a few clients well, God gives us more. If we handle food well, God blesses. If we handle our finances well, God meets all of our needs. He does this through people. We are so thankful for all of the referrals, the food drives, and the donations we receive.
Did you know that just $15 can keep a family of four fed for a week? Imagine being like Stacy who is a single mom after her husband decided he didn't want to be married anymore and now she has to find a full time job. She works part time at a department store making just over $8.00 and hour and worries that she will lose her home. Because they are not divorced yet, she is not getting child support. We can help with job search and food because someone cared enough to help.
Your donations make a difference in the lives of people who are struggling. Some have never been unemployed before. Some have been struggling for awhile because their career choice no longer exists. Some work 40+ hours for commission and barely bring home enough for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
When we help people find jobs and get back on their feet, we not only feel good about it, but it contributes to a healthy economy for all of us. We are at a time right now where unemployment is standing still, benefits are being cut, and people who have never reached out for help or relied on "the system" are in need.
Please consider making a donation to Christian HELP for our monthly "fruits and Veggies" giving program. This program keeps job seekers and their families fed with healthy items while they are looking for work.
Thank you for all of your prayers and your help.
