Christmas on Front Street (Serving the Homeless)

Heritage Church, Texarkana started months ago preparing for this event. We gathered coats, shoes, hygiene packs, blankets, and toys, along with food....we closed the doors of the "church" last Sunday and we became the "church" downtown. "Love out loud"..."Jesus with Skin on"..."be the church" were a few phrases that were used throughout this process! It was amazing how many homeless adults and children we have in our community. We served well over 500 needy folks!! They were grateful!! My children, along with my mom and niece and nephew participated along with Jamie and I. It was an eye opener for all of us to be content and grateful for the things we have!
