A young man in my community recently bought his 1st house, he's only 23!! He was raised by his grandma, who was very poor and who just passed away. He was a great student all through school, then went on to college to earn a Bachelors degree. He has overcome many obstacles, pretty much by himself. When I found out he bought a home, I wanted to get him a house warming gift. When the church handed out the envelopes , I knew I had to help this fella out. I read other stories where church families turned their envelope money into more money. So I decided to have him a surprise house warming online party. Every gift on the registry was bought. And some of my family members pitched in and bought him a new TV!!! He has been so overwhelmed by the gifts. God is so, so good!! To much is given, much is expected.

    Love the way you are showing the “loving people one at a time” message of Jesus! What a great impact on this young man!

    Christians should be the best neighbors, and you are setting a good example of that in your neighborhood!

    I love this, sometimes we neglect these young “just starting out” adults, thank you for seeing the need and meeting it with Christ’s love!!
