Bags of Blessing


Watch the video

On saturday a team of people from Orangeville Alliance Church went to downtown toronto to deliver survival kits to the homeless.  Our church has been participating in this ministry for 3 years now and it continues to grow every year.  On a personal note this is fast becoming one of my favourite Christmas traditions.  Not because it is easy to see people in such need, but because Christ tells us that whatever we do for the least of these, we have done for Him.  It is a privelage to care for these people that many try so hard to ignore.  I hope this video inspires you to care for someone in your sphere of influence this Christmas. 

 

I want to extend a special note of appreciation to all of the generous people who faithfully brought the items that made up the survival kits for the months leading up to our delivery day.  Let me also thank Highlands Youth For Christ for bringing their @ street Level van to transport the bags to Toronto, and to the Salvation Army and Paws and Claws in Orangeville who made key donations when it counted.
