Thanks to the CCC members and friends who have responded so well to last week's post introducing our March SOS collaboration with Haven of Rest. Now, let's build on that initial momentum!
Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his
compassions never fail.
They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
Lamentations
3:22-23
How do the poor and
homeless see God’s compassion today?
In the
prayers, generosity and acts of service of God’s people. Just as God is faithful, HIs people are called to new compassions every morning.
What can I do?
It’s
simple. Keep the compassion coming by joining or continuing your support for CCC’s Simple Opportunities to Serve (SOS). In March, our SOS partner is Haven of Rest.
What’s happening so far?
Friends and
members of CCC are stepping up by volunteering to serve at Haven, praying and donating food items.
Specifics?
You can help keep God's compassion coming through Haven of Rest. Here are
the options:
PRAY – Sign up to be a prayer warrior for Haven of Rest. You will receive a monthly email with three prayer requests/praises for the ministry to lift up in prayer throughout the month. To sign up, contact Barbara Ammirati at:
SERVE – Gather a group of 5 to 7 of your friends and schedule a night to serve a dinner at Haven of Rest. (You will be guided through the entire process by the staff at Haven of Rest. It is a wonderful experience!) Contact Duncan Othen (CCC Local Outreach Coordinator for Haven of Rest) at:
GIVE – During March, bring in canned or boxed food to help feed 400 homeless men and women each day at Haven of Rest! Drop if off in the SOS container located in the hallway on the way to the Gym at the Hudson campus. Mark bags with HAVEN OF REST.
