Regifting. Is it OK?

According to Google, re-gifting is ok if you follow the: 12 No-Nonsense Rules of Regifting, OR the 10 Things You Can Actually Regift OR the 7 Regifting Rules to Follow.

It turns out regifting is ok and it has a lot of rules!

That got me thinking, what if we regifted the really good stuff? What if we regift the gifts that Christ gives to us?

Give HOPE to others.

Stay in PEACE during the difficult times. Share the JOY of Christ by our actions.

LOVE those on our journey, even when it's difficult or we really don't want to.

Changing Our World begins with each individual. By being active and intentional about changing our world by giving these gifts in everyday life, we can make a positive impact on the world around us.

As 2024 begins, consider making re-gifting part of your New Year!

It turns out, Re-Gifting is A-OK!

HULLABALOO - March 2, 2024

Hullabaloo is our Annual Fundraiser to raise the money needed to help keep walk costs low and our community growing. We need your help and attendance!

We need items for both the silent and live auctions. Almost anything goes as auction items... Rooster anything! Aggie items, UT items, gift baskets, weekend getaways, services, baked goods, vintage toys, fishing trips. All items should have an approximate value of $25 (in your opinion) and be in tip-top condition! As many items as we can gather BEFORE February 25 is helpful. Pick up service available!

Events like this take a village (COMMUNITY) so hit that button below and see where you might like to join in the fun of service!

Last year we had 80-90 people attend Hullabaloo, the auctions raised $20K, and everyone had a wonderful time -- we hope to see YOU there.

Childcare is provided.

4:00 p - Praise & Worship

5:00 p - Potluck Dinner

HAVE YOU EVER CLOSED YOUR BIBLE AND THOUGHT, “WHAT DID I JUST READ?”

The Bible Recap is here to help! It’s a short podcast/video (~8 minutes per day) and book (2 pages per day). Host Tara-Leigh Cobble does an excellent job of pointing to Jesus in ALL of scripture. I especially appreciate that in passages where there are different viewpoints or interpretations, she gives examples of all sides and tells the listener to search it out with trusted believers.
