...if they know Christ personally then this too shall pass...
^That sounds like a Mark Lowry video. For those of you who don't know him, he has spent time with the Gaither bunch, but is absolutely hilarious. Check him out on youtube or otherwise.
This is an absolutely fantastic outpouring on the part of the memebers here and those administering the event. It makes me smile to see all of this and reminds me that there are people out there who can do purely good things. Having worked around Fire/EMS/Law Enforcement for so long, you become calloused to helping people, as they frequently don't need it or don't appreciate it. It becomes "just a job." This, though, is truely what the Christmas spirit is about, whether you celebrate the holiday or not. It is a beautiful thing to see all of you reaching out to help someone you've never met or even heard of before this.
I pray that God blesses each of you and your's this holiday season and throughout your lives.
“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’" -Mathew 25:40
