“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your mind and with all your strength. And Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these. ”
Dearest Partners,
I pray you are enjoying this beautiful season of celebrating Jesus’ birth and what that means for all of us! A Savior is born! Hope was born!
I recently received all the photos of the Christmas Party for our children and it brought tears to my eyes! It felt impossible, but God! We still haven’t raised all that is needed to bring us out of this deficit, but we have time and I know it’s possible! If you have last minute, year-end giving looking for a place to make a difference, be multiplied and you can trust is being used where you want it to then look no further than giving to Give Amore! We are 100% funded by generous individuals giving what they have to make a difference to our brothers and sisters across the globe.
