The mission of Faithful Provisions is to teach readers how to easily “Save Money”, so they can then turn that into a lifestyle of “Living Generously”.
Well, last night my daughter and I, and a few friends attended an amazing display of generosity first hand at the Love Your Neighbor Benefit Concert, benefiting El Shaddai Christian Church, which was destroyed by the flood a few weeks ago. the house was PACKED!
There was not a seat open and it was done in an intimate “writers in the round” type of setting. Be sure to checkout the video played at the event, it is a very touching story to watch.
Artists tobyMac,
Brandon Heath, Jason Ingram,
Mike Donehey (of Tenth Avenue North) and Britt Nicole w/ TobyMac,
gave their time to help raise funds towards rebuilding El Shaddai.
It was really cool, because in addition to these amazing artists, there was a surprise guest —- AMY GRANT!
Yes, she showed up about half way through the event and sang a few songs, and even had backup vocals by tobyMac’s rappers! She had a funny story on why you should donate your time, which you can see over at my friend Sami’s site. It was a once in a lifetime event. They livestreamed the event, but I am hoping they will have it available online soon for you to see.
Brandon Heath concluded by telling us that an anonymous donor offered up a $1 for $1 match up to $20,000! So, we need your help.
If you have been looking for a way to help out the flood victims of the Nashville and middle Tennessee area, this is your chance. You can go to my home church’s website Fellowship Bible Church and donate online directly to the Love Your Neighbor – El Shaddai Benefit.
Great photos! You were obviously on the opposite side of the church as me (which explains why I didn’t see you 🙂
Thanks for the link – that was such a funny story in the midst of an amazing night of compassion. Let’s hang out again soon!
