We want to hear your Bag of Hope Story
Back in October 2015 we handed out over 200 Union Gospel Mission Bags of Hope. The bags contained a Bible, water bottle, toiletries, cold weather gear and information on UGM services for the homeless. We distributed these bags to our congregation at no charge and simply asked for three things:
- That you would keep the bag in your car and give it to a homeless person when you felt led.
- That you would explain to them that you are commanded by Christ to care for your neighbors.
- And to ask, "How can I pray for you?"
Have you had the opportunity to give your Bag of Hope away? What happened when you did? Email Jerry Meras, jmeras@fiveoakschurch.org, with your story.
