I am pleased to tell you that our people loved the advent conspiracy theme used by us through Advent. Last July my Children’s Leader put me on to your website and as we were planning ahead decided to go with your theme. Who would have known how powerfully it would relate especially the idea of spending Less. People ended up doing that anyway but we were able to redirect that and give it Biblical and practical reasons far above where the would have been naturally. Several Families were able to take back control over there celebration of Christmas and people were so thankful for the challenge and the intentionality of giving with meaning and focusing on relationships. It was sweet and will have future repercussions for many of us. After all was said and done $6,377.25 was contributed to Living Water International.
Thanks advent Conspiracy; Praise God, keep on conspiring… we got a long way to go.
