Christmas Blessings from Forest Park Ministry Center
Christmas greetings from all who minister and all who are ministered to through Forest Park Ministry Center! We are eternally grateful for all of the supporters, donors, and prayer warriors whose gifts keep the ministry going. No gift goes unnoticed, and God is using your prayers and your gifts in many ways to bring about life change in the hearts and minds of the guests who visit the center, and in our own lives as well. We will be sharing some of those stories in this posting; read and rejoice in
God’s work!
Recently, Fred had the opportunity to help a man of another faith. He had not received help from his own and was ashamed to come to a Christian to ask for help. The beauty of God’s grace flowing when he saw a Christian reaching out to him in his need will make an impact on him and could even lead him to see the truth in His Story.
Jackie learned of a need that a grandmother had for her grandchildren. Having temporary custody of the children, she struggled just to feed them. As Christmas approached, they anticipated the release of the children’s parent from prison and had not signed up for Angel Tree assistance. Having just learned that the release would be in January, this precious lady was distraught and thought there would be no gifts for the children. Jackie motivated her church and prayer group to assist, and she, her husband, and her grandson had the joy of purchasing gifts for this family.
What a grand way to show our own children the real meaning of Christmas! Whether it’s adopting a family in need, filling a shoebox for children in need around the world, or providing Christmas dinner for someone who is lonely, reach out this year, and your family reap the joy!
It is truly a joy to work alongside each of you as we seek to reach our community with the true message of Christ’s love. May each one of you experience Christ’s Love,
Peace, Joy, and Hope this Christmas and throughout the coming year.
Joyfully Serving,
Donna
