Help Portrait Raleigh

Lately i've been thinking about how helping those in need 3 months out of the year isn't going to cut it for me anymore. I loved going to serve the Lord in Africa and saw so many needs but it got me to thinking... Jesus told us that if we see someone that needs a coat give them ours. But what if you see 5 people and only have one coat? I would like to think that i'm even willing enough to walk around without a sock on for someone else, but what about my coat, and my shirt, or maybe even a shoe or two? So the Lord answered me with, "then i will send 4 more with you." and with that people applied to go to Africa next summer with L4L and give up their coats as well, and i'm so pumped for their passion and love. But how can we serve here?

Help Portrait Raleigh.
On December 4th Love for the Sake of Love is going to be partnering with other organizations and churches to host an event called Help Portrait Raleigh. The basic idea behind it is that professional photographers donate their time effort and resources to take pictures of those in need: the sick, the homeless, the single mothers, and anyone else who needs help. Their picture is then printed and given to them with one framed copy. Along the way, maybe we are able to give them a meal or a smile or even hope. We are setting out to give them love with a portrait of hope.

What we need most is families in need. Its simple just find someone you know needs their picture taken and invite them! Heres the link to the website to find out more: helpportraitraleigh.com. If you just click on the invite a family it will tell you exactly how to spread the word.
The event is going to be from 10-5pm on that Saturday at vintage 21 church.
If you have any questions about the event i would love to hear from you!
