ReGift!

Danielle spoke last Sunday about regifting the things that we have been given. When we begin to see all that we have as a gift from God, not as something we've earned or are entitled to, we are compelled to want to give those things away again. Here are some ways you can give:

www.thewellcommunity.net
Journey partners with the Well once a month to serve them dinner. This ministry for people with mental illness has plenty of opportunities to serve.

www.kiva.org
Microfinancing organization that allows you to loan money to specific individuals throughout the world. When the loan is paid back to you, you can re-invest it in someone else. Talk about regifting!

www.planfund.org
Local Dallas branch of microfinancing.

www.heifer.org
Provide livestock to families in need. The livestock gives the family both food and income, and Heifer’s “Passing on the Gift” program allows recipients to give offspring of their livestock to other families in need.

www.servlife.org
Sponsor an orphan for $30/month and provide them with food, clothing and private Christian education.

www.ntfb.org
North Texas Food Bank. Volunteer to feed those in our own village.

www.habitat.org
Help build houses for people.

www.wilkinsoncenter.org
Local Dallas organization serving children, the elderly and those who are hungry. Volunteer opportunities abound.
