The Lights of Christmas for All Partnerships

Salt of the Earth Food Blessing distributed 200 ticket vouchers amongst their five locations through The Lights of Christmas for All Fund. One of the recipients at the Smokey Point distribution location was in tears, saying, “Really, I wasn’t going to be able to do that for my kids this year. This will be an amazing gift, as I already told them we would not be able to go on our annual family tradition.”

This is the impact each ticket voucher for The Lights of Christmas has on a family in the community!

The Lights of Christmas for All Fund is a new initiative created this past April. Warm Beach Camp Ministries received complete funding through donations by the end of August, successfully established ten partner organizations with local churches and non-profit agencies, and extended 1260 ticket vouchers for distribution to families in need for The Lights of Christmas 2023 event season.

By building new partnerships with like-minded organizations, we can reach more people together for Christ. We are so grateful to be sharing the Christmas message with families during a stressful season and reminding them that they have a community and a God who loves them.

Warm Beach Camp Ministries is humbled and overjoyed by the abundant generosity and participation in bringing forth the hope and love of Christ to families who need it most this Christmas season. Thank you!

Living at Peace

“God blesses those who work for peace, for they will be called the children of God.” Matthew 5:9 NLT God blesses us for doing the work of living at peace with ourselves and others. Peace reflects the character of God. A young woman named Skyler shared a video on the You Version Bible App on this verse. She likened the quality of peace as being one thing that shows us as being children of God. She went on to the ...
