It will be one of my favorite Sundays ever! Watch for the article about it in the RB Journal, Poway Chieftain, and CMR Corridor. Here's some highlights.
In 6 short weeks, $3000 became over $12,000 invested in Kingdom causes. 2 hours one Sunday (explaining the assignment) became over 600 hours invested in service (And this is only so far - many volunteer hours continue).
And God used the people of GVC to reach places like:
- Tanzania
- Slovakia
- Russia
- Mali
- Building wells for fresh water in Africa
- A San Diego inner city Fellowship of Christian Athletes Club
- Families in need within our church
- Couples' Conference Scholarship
- Rancho Penasquitos Food Bank
- Moms in Touch
- Operation Christmas Child
- Christian College Tuition
- San Diego Youth Crisis Center
- American Cancer Society
- World Vision Famine Relief
- Iraqi Children's Clinic
- St. Jude's
- Life Choices
- World Hunger
- Famine Relief
- Creation Care
- A 9 yr. old girl with cancer
- etc.
Well done...
