Seth Barnes, founder of Adventures in Missions (AIM), wrote a blog that I think is of interest to everyone! Soooo… I “borrowed” it to post here on my blog.MERRY CHRISTMAS ORPHANS!
Seth Writes:
I love what some Christians are doing to minister to widows and orphans through imaginative ways. Take Product(RED), for example: Bono saw the consumerist tendencies of Americans and, instead of beating them over the head with statistics, utilized corporate revenue to bring life-saving drugs to AIDS victims in Africa.
Or, take my friend Tom Davis, who helped start Saint’s Coffee, which promises that for every pound of coffee you buy, an orphan is fed for an entire month. I see more and more of these types of businesses springing up these days. It is a creative way for the ministry-minded and business-minded to get together and collaborate in ways that advance the kingdom of God. For more on Saint’s Coffee, check out the following:
It’s that time of year when our minds turn toward giving gifts to those we love.
This year Saint’s Coffee is offering several special coffee blends and Christmas packages for the holiday season.
This reasonably priced, fair trade and organic coffee is among the top 3 percent of all coffee in the world. And when you drink it… you are helping more than yourself.
Saints Coffee has faithfully donated 1/3 of it’s net profits back to Children’s HopeChest to help feed children in Swaziland.
Order a bag or box today for the coffee lovers in your life!
