Family Date

Hey Kids!

Bring mom and dad to the Mud Room, Saturday the 28th from 10:30-12:00 to create a Valentine's Day project together. The Tree House Club will provide snacks. Prices for family projects range from $15-$30. Please RSVP by Wednesday the 25th to jeannetteg@live-oak.org.     

Dear Live Oak Family,

        Thank you for supporting the Tree House Club’s bake sale. Together, we raised over $1100.00 that we used to purchase 5 Goats, 8 Chickens, 1 Pig, 10 Fruit Trees, 1 Education For One Child, 1 Pack of School Supplies, 1 Sheep, 1 Rabbit and 1 Donkey. Those gifts could potentially change the lives of entire villages of impoverished children and families. Praise God!

But, the gift recipients aren’t the only ones experiencing change. This project has affected the THC children, too. They have been enlightened about the problem of global hunger and empowered to make a difference. Families spent time baking and connecting together during this busy season, children emptied their entire piggy banks, hosted lemonade stands and did extra chores to raise money to help people they may never know in this lifetime. I so appreciate Casey Morrow for initiating and coordinating this effort. It was a blessing to all of us.

I’m looking forward to seeing what God is going to do in the lives of families in 2011 and I want to invite you to be part our team! Be transformed as you are used by God to help evangelize and transform the lives of children and families right here at Live Oak. There is a place for YOU on our team…

God bless you and thank you for your prayers and support of the Tree House Club children’s ministry.
