What can I do to Help?
What can I do to help in 2010?........you may ask.
First of all, please know that a little love and a little help can make a BIG
difference in someone's life. Showing someone you care and that Jesus
cares for them too is the first step for someone to take in the right direction.
Everyone needs a saving and loving relationship with Christ.
Next, please pray for this ministry as we reach out to the hurting in our
community and area. Helping the hurting is a big job and sometimes the
demands outweighs the resources.
Then finally, please pray and purpose in your heart to give to TLC. We
accept all donations. It has not failed us yet, that when someone donates an
item, soon after, someone else needs just that thing...and we're able to help.
No gift is too small to give Unto the Lord through TLC.
Do you need to clean out your closet? If so, please give us a call. We accept
yard sales items to recycle. Our monetary donations are used to restock our
pantry and to keep the ministry going. We also have fund raisers and
booths at festivals. If you see us at one, please stop by and buy something.
This money too goes back into the ministry. We offer pick-up within a 25
mile radius from Martin, Georgia. Donations further away than that may
have to be delivered by the giver. Also, extra large items may need to be
delivered. All monies and donations given to TLC is tax-deductible and is
used for the TLC Ministry to help others. Thank You for your interest in the
TLC Ministry and for the generosity you have already shown. God Bless
You!
