Community Dinner LOVE Offerings
At each community dinner you have the opportunity to financially contribute to a Love offering. Every quarter we give these donations to various local, regional and even nationwide missions and programs. In 2024, because of your generosity, we have able to give donations to All Blessings Flow, whose organization provides free durable medical equipment to people in need, Emmanuel Youth Missions to sponsor children to attend school in El Salvador, UMCOR for Hurricane relief in North Carolina and affected regions in western Virginia, and to the Nelson County Sheriff's Bikes and Badges program to purchase bicycles to give to kids in need in the community! Your donation is greatly appreciated and thoughtfully used to help others!
In 2025, your LOVE offerings will go towards Emmanual Youth (sponsoring children to go to school in El Salvador), Unity in Community and Almost Home for the first 3 quarters of the year. Your giving makes a difference in so many wonderful ways and touches so many people as we strive to bring the love of Christ to all!
