In the past we have sent gifts to our soldiers in the Middle East and Afghanistan. We have put on a Carnival in the St Charles Apartments and we held a weekly Bible Study there. We have also taken pastries and coffee to the day laborers waiting in 35° weather to be picked for a day’s work. We have participated in the Advocacy Pregnancy Center of Lewisville’s Thanksgiving Outreach for the last 2 years to help provide Thanksgiving meals for those who might not be able to afford them. We have taken Christmas gifts to an orphanage down in Reynosa Mexico and this year we are taking part in the Lewisville Christmas Angels project to provide Christmas gifts to the less fortunate.
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
