As the Senior Development Officer at the Open Door Mission I have the honor and pleasure of meeting with many of the special people that support our work of changing lives. Their support comes in the form of prayer, volunteering their time and talent on site, and sharing their financial gifts. Here are a few of the stories that I have heard regarding the reasons that our donors give.
-Curt noted that “part of my tithing has always supported missions and the Open Door Mission is a great mission to support.”
-Bill shares that “I am excited about how the Open Door Mission turns lives around through Christ.”
-Tim said, “My business did especially well one month and I wanted to help an organization that helps others so I sent a check to the Open Door Mission.”
-Brad and Laura fully support their local church’s new building project but knew their church’s mission giving decreased during the building phase. Therefore, as a couple, they decided to increase their personal support of the Open Door Mission.
-Susan shares, “our daughter was abused and murdered in another state. We decided to send the memorials gift in her memory to the Lydia House to help other women in desperate situations because know we know that God saves lives at the Open Door Mission.”
These are just a few of the heart moving stories I have heard on my visits with Open Door Mission donors. You can see why it is an honor to work with the donors of the Open Door Mission in the manner I do. I not only have the opportunity to share the great news happening at the Mission but I am privileged to hear the stories of our donors and how God has moved their hearts to give. Thanks for joining the Open Door Mission with your ongoing prayers and gifts as we work to change lives.
Whenever you would like to arrange a visit or a tour please give me a call at 829-1538.
Blessings, Scott Shreve
