Offering to Rockford Rescue Mission

Last Saturday PM, we purposed to give the entire offering collected (except for the checks marked for Base Camp - building fund) to the ministry of the Rockford Rescue Mission here in town. The Mission's work is to help people move from homelessness and despair to hope and healing in Jesus Christ. When the evening ended I was handed a note displaying the amount raised -

$11,445!

I thank God for the generosity of this church. May God mulitiply what was raised to reach many men and women with the gospel of hope.
