2013 Walk For Life


On September 21st, members from Gilead participated in the Clarity Walk For Life.  This was an opportunity to raise support and awareness for the ministry that Clarity has in sharing the gospel and seeking to save unborn babies in our community.  Gilead had five sponsored walkers who raised money by seeking your sponsorship.  I have always enjoyed participating in the walk since we moved into Hardin county several years ago, and this year was no exception.  It is always exciting to see so many people from churches all across the county come together in visible support of this important work.

I was particularly encouraged by the way that you all responded in providing financial support to our walkers.  You made their jobs a joy rather than a labor.  At the risk of sounding a little proud, I also wanted to let you know that Gilead was one of the top ten giving churches in the walk this year.  I know that it isn’t a competition.  It is just wonderful to see your eagerness to see God’s work go forward even if it means offering some of your hard-earned resources.

I pray that God will continue to keep His hand on us and give us more and more opportunities to advance His kingdom.
