Ye have heard it hath been said, THOU SHALT LOVE THY NEIGHBOR, AND HATE THINE ENEMY.
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect,
even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
.Matthew 5:43-48. |
But Jesus said, 'Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come
unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.' Matthew 19:14 |
Well...better late than never - we have this years Un-Xmas Family project!! For many years the Meeting has "adopted" a family at Christmas time, but a few years ago it was decided that families get a lot of help at Christmas, but not the rest of the year...so, we started the "Un-Xmas" family project! Normally we have this project in conjunction with The Chain of Prayer in March/April, but we are running a little behind schedule.
We have 2 needy families with very young children who need help. Below is some information about the families and what they need. These families are participating in The Nurturing Program (UF-The Child Abuse Prevention Project) and are learning better ways of parenting and protecting their children. All donations will be delivered by the Nurturing Program Parent Educator that goes into the home. Any donations of money will be handled by that staff person and will reach its intended destination. Checks should be made out to the Meeting. Please contact Annie McPherson if you have any questions.
