Cook Out for Project 24

Defend the Orphans held a cook out last Saturday to raise money for Project 24. Bro. Mike Carter was an inspiration as he headed up this event. He worked tirelessly in the heat of the day setting up the event, cooking hot dogs and serving folks and all with a smile. His co-workers at his job donated the food for the cook out. We are extremely grateful to them and Mike for their hearts to serve the Lord and being an example of putting action to their faith. I am reminded that faith without works is dead! Is our faith a dead faith or an alive faith? We know this by the works it produces! We are praising the Lord for all His benefits and blessings! Even though we spent a whole day in the 95 plus degree sweltering heat at the cook out I was more refreshed after it than before because I was blessed to get to serve the Lord! And blessed to see Him provide over $340.00 to help with Project 24. Also a special thanks to Brandon Katz for his tireless work at the cook out. His help was invaluable and his heart to serve an example to all. Thank you to all who cooked baked items for us to sell and to all who came by to eat with us. May you all know that your support means so much to me and your heart to help those less fortunate than us is a beautiful expression of Jesus to the world!
