Meet needs. Feed souls. Elevate God. Vapor provides clean water, food and teaches about God. They have thrift store locations at Greystone, Pell City, Westover, Vestavia. Please drop off new or gently used items to any of the stores. One of the young men we met in Africa now works for Vapor. When I asked why, he told me two of his siblings had starved to death. That. Wow. Vapor helps feeds, gives hope and changes lives. 65% of their funding is from the thrift stores. Please invite others to donate, collect from others, clean out and drop donations at any Vapor thrift store.
The Lovelady Center takes approximately 100 new residents per month. Their mission is to "help women rebuild their lives and walk forward with faith-driven hope...". Words of encouragement are given to each new resident on arrival. The goal of this project is to provide the center with enough cards/letters to reach these new residents as they begin their journey. Please send as many as you are led to write. Each correspondence makes a huge difference to these ladies. Include scriptures and prayers that will uplift them and give them the tools to strengthen their bond with God. Cards/Letters should be addressed "For a Lovelady". Please sign cards "Your Church of the Highlands Family". Please do not seal the envelopes. Please mail cards to: The Lovelady Center Rachel Elledge, Volunteer Coordinator 7916 2nd Avenue South Birmingham, AL 35206

Good Morning!! My Freedom group and I are leading a project to bless one of our Lotus ladies. She is one of the girls that comes to church with us and she is such a light. So very sweet! She has 2 years clean, and she is ready to move out on her own. It is something she has prayed about, talked with myself and Jade about, and God has opened doors for this move. In the process, she also started a new job this week at an attorney’s office so God is opening doors for opportunities to grow and be a part of something bigger than she imagined. She is excited and ready to be on her own, but she has nothing. I have asked her to make a list of everything she’ll need and I will list her needs below. She located a bed and a couch and we are helping her pick that up Friday night. If you see anything on the list that you can help with just let me know. It can be stuff you don’t need anymore or if you feel led to purchase that’s fine too. My group and I will be doing Walmart gift cards for her to purchase items she has already found at Walmart. You are more than welcome to contribute to that as well. She is grateful for anything. I will be happy to pick up or it can be dropped off at my house if you prefer. And of course I can always meet you at church. Thank you so much for anything and everything you do!!
