A Challenge for LOVE in ACTION; because of you Bob + Linda Gist.
LOVE + PEOPLE = LOVE IN ACTION. One thing we know, when love is on the move it is contagious. In order for that love to be on the move it requires people to be carriers of it. (Bob + Linda, as much as you don’t EVER want the attention on you, we want to spotlight you because the way you live life in love is worthy of being on display, and it is CONTAGIOUS!)
Bob + Linda are a beautiful representation of LOVE IN ACTION. We have personally been abundantly blessed by their love in action time and time again, but it doesn’t stop with us. The love these two exude travels the globe. And we can’t share of their love without pairing it with the knowledge of it being extremely selfless + humble.
We could tell you story after story about these two and how they SHOW UP, over and over again. Constant, steady, helpful, humble. It is truly LOVE AVAILABLE whenever you need it. It’s the kind of love that walks the less traveled paths to seek and find those in need. The kind of love that finds you where you are at, accepts you as you are, and reaches in to help. It’s a practical and stunning representation of the kind of love Jesus has for us. We want to honor that kind of love. We want to CELEBRATE that kind of goodness. We want to JOIN hands with that movement of CONTAGIOUS LOVE that spreads like fire.
So, we are asking for anyone that knows and loves the Gists (or wants to know these amazing people) to make a love deposit that can SPREAD to their friends and family in Africa. They have people they serve over there that could use a big dose of encouragement and love right now. The local leaders are working tirelessly to provide the basic necessities of food to families in need under very stressful circumstances. It is about $30 per family per week for the most basic of food supplies, $120/month.
Want to help spread a little love? Click the donate button below for giving options, and we will make sure to let Bob + Linda know of your quest to join the challenge to love well. Let’s show them the example they have modeled for us!
