Christmas Eve outreach to the homeless

This Saturday is Christmas Eve. We will spend part of the day sharing the Gospel, serving our Lord and ministering to the homeless in Denton, TX. This outreach is being done in conjunction with the Prayer Stop.

Join us Christmas Eve Day as we do what Jesus did and serve those who could never pay us back. Come be a blessing to others and watch how fast God will bless you. “He who gives to the poor will not lack, But he who hides his eyes will have many curses.” – Proverbs 28:27

As some background, on Christmas Day 2007, Brad and Kelly Aldrich along with my wife and I and our kids served meals to the homeless in Dallas and shared the Gospel with them. This past September, Brad Aldrich died. As a tribute to him, Kelly asked if Mande and I would join her in some outreach to the homeless again this Christmas. We agreed!

In November, I was speaking with Darrel Rundus who was telling me about the homeless outreaches that they are doing at the Pray Stop on the fourth Saturday of each month. He then went on to tell me that the December event would be canceled because so many of his volunteers would be traveling for Christmas. I said, “I think this is an answer to both of our prayers” and then explained that we were planning to do “something” for a homeless outreach that day. So we put two and two together and agreed to help him out.

The outreach is from 11AM to 2:30PM. You may like to arrive a little early to help set up. The address of the Prayer Stop is 715 S. Elm Street, Denton, TX 76201. You can RSVP via the Facebook event. A map is below. Please join us for the event. If you are unable to attend, then please keep the event in your prayers. Children are welcome. They can help. Child care is provided.
