One of the desires we have at CATGrove is to BE IN the community and share the love of Jesus in a practical way.
I am so excited about this Saturday and our community ministry called “Shop With A Hero”. We will have approximately 40 children partnered with an officer or personal in uniform. They will be given a one hundred dollar gift card and sent into Wal-Mart to shop for themselves and their family.
We accomplish three major things in this community effort:
- We create a positive experience for a child and a person of authority where otherwise their encounters with people in uniform is quite different and difficult.
- We give them a meaningful Christmas experience for this holiday season with gift-buying and giving.
- We simply share the love of Jesus in a practical way with the children, the parents, and many officers we might not otherwise have contact with.
If you are a CATGrover, come out to the Loganville Wal-Mart and help us love on some incredible people in our community!
