Christmas Mission In Buffalo
Many times the Lord will speak to me
upon awaking in the morning. This
past March as I opened my eyes to greet the morning, I heard the Holy
Spirit say this to me “Take my heart to the poor in a box of love”.
He then began playing in my minds eye, the documentary video on
how Pastor Eric Johns lives out on the streets with homeless each year
at Thanksgiving time. He
showed me the faces of the people whose lives were touched by the love
of the Johns family. Each
year the whole family spends endless hours packing boxes of food and
wrapping Christmas presents for the inner city people of Buffalo, NY.
This Christmas mission is called “Boxes of Love”.
The
Holy Spirit then said to me “Can you see that this is my heart and you
will be taking my heart of love to these people who I died for?”
He then instructed me to call Pastor Eric and Pastor Michelle and
tell them that we are going to bring a team there to help them this
year. Pastor Eric told me
he had just been praying as to what God wanted him to do with the Boxes
of Love. He didn’t know how he and his family and a hand full of
people could pack 10,000 boxes of food and wrap thousands of toys. He was thrilled that we said we were coming.
That is
the story of how Tasch Ministries International became involved in this
project. We want to take as
many people with us to give Jesus’ heart of love to these precious
people. We will be
wrapping toys at the Buffalo Christian Center and be
involved in packing bags of groceries at a different location. We
will give away the food and toys outside - out of trucks - in the
neighborhoods. Then we get to do a Kidz Club After School program and a
Friday night Urban Impact Youth Ministry which is powerful.
Jesus said “When you’ve done it unto the least of these; you’ve
done it unto Me”. (Matthew
25:40) Wouldn’t
this be a wonderful gift to give our King for His birthday?
