PRAY!
GOD gives us multiple opportunities to share about the love of JESUS during and through this event. Many of those who shop at the yard-give come every year and we have gotten a chance to get to know them. Please pray for Love Gave as we seek to share the love of JESUS and shine HIS light on ALL who would come.
We give love because Love gave.
