I am so excited about Sunday, Dec 20, that I can't stand it. That is the day we give our whole offering away to the four causes--the Global cause, the Local cause, the Multi-site cause and the Community Center cause. I'm hoping and praying that it is our largest offering ever at Indian Creek.

At the same time that this year has been one of our most challenging ever financially we are practicing the spiritual truth that it is more blessed to give than to receive. We are learning that giving is good FOR us. It blesses us and sets the spiritual principal of sowing and reaping in motion. And at the same time it meets needs around the corner and around the world.

It is a privilege to be used of God. Can you tell I'm excited! Oh, I already said that didn't I!
