IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

I desperately want to help folks who are in need of blankets, food, a source of warmth and possibly folks who are snowed in. The truck has been doing well in this weather but does have some limits if it’s up big hills. This is going to be a community effort. I am more than willing to do the footwork. Would you be willing to help with food items, clean gently used blankets, hand or foot warmers, toboggans, scarves, coats and anything else you might think of? Please pray for the fuel to do all of this because we’re taking a leap of faith and trusting God will provide the rest. If anyone would like to donate towards gas money, the ministry has cash app $thevinewv venmo PayPal and Zelle thevinewv@gmail.com

Thank you for considering helping those in need during these frigid times. No one else needs to die or suffer in this cold weather. Prayers for the gentleman’s family who lost his life because of the elements.

We have PayPal, Zelle (thevinewv@gmail.com), Cash App $thevinewv, Venmo , FB Pay and Apple Pay. We are non profit so it’s tax deductible.

This year the Lord highlighted COMMUNITY. He brought us to doing Christmas outreach the way we did it the first few years the ministry was established. Going door-to-door in our local low income neighborhoods and handing out gifts to those who need them. Today is day one of three of this years Christmas outreach 🙏🏻🤗🎄. We still have a handful of families that we sponsored, and a couple that still need sponsored if anyone would still like to give. THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAS GIVEN AND SOWED INTO THIS!!!!

Please keep us in your prayers as we bring love and hope To those fortunate today. Jesus is the reason for the season. Pray everyone we contacted today sees Him and not us because He gets every bit of the glory. 🎄🎁🕊️

Stay tuned for more Christmas updates ❤️

Starting in 2011 we have collected and distributed gifts and food all over the state of WV. I would say approximately 12,000 brand new gifts to children (and that’s on a lower guesstimating ) hundreds of food boxes and too many jackets and winter clothes to count. We have not released what we are doing this year yet, but we started working on it the end of October 🤗. God makes every bit of this happen. He is faithful!!!
Here is a recap of some of the past giveaways and drop offs and be on the lookout for what we have in store this year. We will be posting more about that next week😃
We are blessed the Lord allows us to do this every year🙏🏻
To give to our Christmas outreach you can give on our website www.thevinewv.com, Venmo Cashapp $thevinewv

Instead of looking down on others and finding their faults, flaws and mistakes, let’s start seeing and speaking words of encouragement, hope and to their potential! Jesus died for EVERYONE! Not some, not the ones you think deserve grace and forgiveness or those who your in the cool kids club with. The ones who have been mislabeled by you and society. The ones who have made mistakes that either don’t know how or would prefer to not live a different lifestyle. He died to reconcile us ALL into his family!

“The altar from which God gives us the gift of himself is not for exploitation by insiders who grab and loot. In the old system, the animals are killed and the bodies disposed of outside the camp. The blood is then brought inside to the altar as a sacrifice for sin. It’s the same with Jesus. He was crucified outside the city gates—that is where he poured out the sacrificial blood that was brought to God’s altar to cleanse his people. So let’s go outside, where Jesus is, where the action is—not trying to be privileged insiders, but taking our share in the abuse of Jesus. This “insider world” is not our home. We have our eyes peeled for the City about to come. Let’s take our place outside with Jesus, no longer pouring out the sacrificial blood of animals but pouring out sacrificial praises from our lips to God in Jesus’ name. * * *”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭13‬:‭10‬-‭15‬ ‭MSG‬‬

When He reconciled us to Himself, He paid it all! No layaway, no mortgage, no rent, no finance plan! No, He paid it all and then some! He forgave us our debt, empowering us to forgive our debtors! Thats what I call unconditional love! If you do not know the agape (unconditional love) of The Father, just know that it’s been made free! It’s like walking into a store and seeing everything you ever wanted and needed and the price tag says, “PAID IN FULL!”

“He made Christ who knew no sin to [judicially] be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we would become the righteousness of God [that is, we would be made acceptable to Him and placed in a right relationship with Him by His gracious lovingkindness].”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭5‬:‭21‬ ‭AMP‬‬

“For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God [that is, His remarkable, overwhelming gift of grace to believers] is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭6‬:‭23‬ ‭AMP‬‬

There is One consistent standard regardless of the emotions, circumstances, or situations that are attempting to wage war on you, your family, your job, etc. That standard has a name and it is The Name above every other name. He is King of kings and Lord of lords! He has conquered death and the grave! He holds the keys to death and hell and does not desire for anyone to perish! His Name is Jesus! He loves you more than you feel, think, imagine or know! He desires for you to grow into the maturity of His likeness and image! He doesn’t expect you to be perfect, just to be yourself and allow His Holy Spirit to reveal and heal. Will you continue to allow the perversions of this world to dictate your attitude, thoughts, words or behaviors? Or will you choose to bring it to Him who has won The Victory for us to share in?

I encourage you to bring it all to Him and watch Him stomp it into the grave and resurrect new life!

What may seem like opposition is really an opportunity! Tune into His voice by surrendering your thoughts, emotions, desires, wants and understanding. Allow Him to guide you by remaining willing to do whatever it takes, no matter what!

““I tell you this timeless truth: The person who follows me in faith, believing in me, will do the same mighty miracles that I do—even greater miracles than these because I go to be with my Father!”
‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭12‬ ‭TPT‬‬
