Thank
you, thank you to all of the volunteers who gave of their time to come out to
feed the homeless on Christmas! Please know how much you were appreciated by those
you served, and by the volunteers of Keepin’ It Real Ministries. Pastor Oscar estimates
that we fed around 200, and prepared another 50 meals to take to senior
citizens. There is no way that this could have happened without you taking the time
to prepare food and to come out to serve. (There were some people who weren’t
able to come, but sent food anyway. God bless you!) Thank you for being the hands
and feet of Christ!
We
hope that you might like to be involved in the ministry at other times of the
year! You are very welcome to come out to Finlay Park any Sunday at 3 pm to
participate in worship. If you would like to participate financially, your
gifts will be used to help pay rent and utilities at the transitional houses,
the rent on the storage units (where donated items are collected, sorted, and
stored until they can be distributed), and for gas and upkeep on the ministry
van. Donations can be mailed to Keepin’ It Real Ministries, 1037 Elmwood Ave,
Box 11, Columbia, SC 29201. Donations of clothing, toiletries, backpacks,
coats, blankets, reading glasses, and Bibles, and furniture (for those transitioning
off of the street) are also needed. Donations may be dropped off at U-Haul
Moving and Storage on Elmwood. Your
gifts are crucial and much appreciated.
Thank you so very, very much for being a blessing to others! God
bless you!!
