For a moment, I thought I was transferred in some magical way to middle school as Rick Young came out and took our gift auction to a new level! Let's just go ahead and say it, he is the king of game, the host w/ the most. We love Rick and are grateful for his "guest appearance" last night. We raised just under $500 for our Single Moms. To me, it was a culmination of all the things that we want to stand for at Prime, not meeting just to meet, but meeting with a purpose. AND, we all came together and practiced what we believe- giving makes a difference. Like our pastor says all the time, "You can't out-give God" and "You are never more like Jesus than when you are giving". It's true. As I look back, I think about a group that raised $4,500 to dig a well in Africa for 30,000 people that we've never met. Then, I see the outreach projects, the mission trips represented, the money raised for different projects. God is using this ministry to make a dent not only here in our community, but in places around the world that we may never get to set foot on. May God bless our group and expand our territory next year. May 2010 be the most giving year for Prime by far! We want to live like we are leaving. Merry Christmas everyone...
