Angel Tree Ministry




Another thing my wife and I like to do around Christmas is buy a family Christmas presents who can't afford them. This year our church has partnered with Prison Ministries. Prison Ministries goes into prisons across the country and shares the good news of Jesus Christ. During the Christmas season all the inmates both women and men who will not be home with their children and involved with the prison ministry in their jail can give their children presents through the giving of people like you and me. My wife and I were privileged enough to purchase the gifts for an 8 year old boy and a 9 year old girl.

If you want to check out this ministry, here's a link to their promotional video:

Jesus could not have been more right when he said, "It is more blessed to give then to receive."
I define success by how much you give away, not how much money you make. How do you define success?
