rejoice student ministry continues homeless ministry during cold weather



This past weekend, a huge number of students from Rejoice Church continued their homeless ministry by preparing needy people for the cold weather. Between our 60 students and Airport FWB Church's 20 students, they handed out almost 100 backpacks with gloves, scarves, blankets, and anything else that will make someone warm during this cold Christmas season. Many of our friends downtown commented that this was a huge need especially since John 3:16 and the Salvation Army beds were full and downtown Tulsa has been eliminating some of their homeless shelters. I'm so thankful for teenagers and adults who care to give to people who will never be able to give in return! How do you plan on giving this Christmas? Who could you give too that could never pay you back?

Thank you for "doing work" - it couldn't have been better timing. Can you imagine being out in the cold the last few days and nights? Good job students and leaders.
