I am really pumped about what Hub City Church is doing this Christmas season.
The story of Christ's birth is a story of promise, hope, and a revolutionary love.
So, what happened? What was once a time to celebrate the birth of a savior has somehow turned into a season of stress, traffic jams, and shopping lists.
And when it's all over, many of us are left with presents to return, looming debt that will take months to pay off, and this empty feeling of missed purpose. Is this what we really want out of Christmas?
What if Christmas became a world-changing event again?
We, as a community, want to make a tangible difference in the world this Christmas. So here's the plan. We are going to donate $1 on behalf of every first time guest who attends our Gathering to the Water Missions International. Then on Sunday December 21, we are going to give our ENTIRE offering away to Water Missions International.
Christmas is a time when we remember the extreme generosity of our Heavenly Father as he sent his son to earth. We're conspiring to do our part to model extreme generosity as well.
So, who are you going to invite? Come to our gathering. Do good. What are you going to give? More info to come.

This is a really nifty idea. We have Dec 21st on our calendar!
I was actually just wondering if you were planning on finishing your discipleship series? I was really interested in the whole share, connect, disciple, minister thing. Not that you have tons of free time or anything. I was just hoping to catch that at some point. Thanks!
