Love Overflows


Hey friends, 

Just wanted to let you know that we had an awesome outreach in Long Beach where a handful of clubs that seemed weary of us in the past, welcomed us with open arms!  At one club, we received 2 rounds of hugs from a girl who was moved by the very gesture of our giving her a gift.  "There is something very special about you-you're so generous.  There has to be something special about anybody who would come in here and give us gifts like this."  We know that it is out of the abundant overflow of love that we have received that you are I are able to give.  She said that she is going to contact us and we are looking forward to the opportunity to tell her more about the relentless love God has for her.    

This love has not only been evident in the outreach we do here in Los Angeles, but in and among the 15 or so ministries we have had the opportunity to train throughout the nation.  To read the letter a club owner in Kansas wrote to a Treasures trained outreach, check out this blog: http://donniemiller.blogspot.com/
