PRAY FOR LA
It seems like everyone I know has a direct link to someone suffering from the fires in LA. At times like these, it's hard to know what we can do and how we can help. But we have a God who commands the storms (Mark 4:35-41), and we can pray for miracles. We also know He is bringing healing and peace through His Church.
GraceWay's ReachOut! team is here for just this. They prayerfully direct 10% of all donations to our mission partners, and often give an extra amount to those in extra need. We have opened up a special giving fund (found here) that ReachOut! will use to give to trusted mission partners and churches serving the victims of the LA fires. What a blessing it is to be part of a larger kingdom and love our neighbors even when we are over 300 miles away.
If you want to know more about our team or to join ReachOut! you can email reachout@gracewaylife.org.
