BECOME // LIGHTHOUSE SHELTER HOLIDAY GIFT DRIVE
Let’s help our neighbors at the Lighthouse bring Christmas cheer to children and families experiencing homelessness this holiday season. You can learn more about how to help our community this season HERE.
BECOME // MEDICAL DEBT FORGIVENESS
More than $26,600 has come in so far! We are continuing to raise funds on behalf of churches in Maryland to purchase and forgive medical debt in our state. ALL money donated will go directly to purchase and forgive debt through our partnership with RIP Medical Debt, a non-profit company aiming to abolish the medical debt currently bought and sold by collections agency throughout the United States. Right now, RIP has control of a debt portfolio for Maryland totaling $4.5M. We can purchase and forgive that debt for a cost of $45K, or one penny to the dollar. This is a tremendous opportunity to make an enormous difference in the lives of our neighbors!
For more information or to donate, please visit revolutionannapolis.com/debt. Also, tell this story! Share it on Facebook, post it on Instagram, and ask your neighbors or coworkers if they can help — let’s make this a true community-wide effort and together, let’s take another step towards a dream of a state without medical debt at all. We are forgiven people, forgiving people. This is such a great way to put that belief into practice!
BECOME // LOOKING FOR YOUTH VOLUNTEERS!
As our youth group begins to grow, we are looking for more adult volunteers to help lead discussions and plan events for young people in our church. This is such important work…with such wonderful kids! If you would be interested in joining the team, please get in touch with Kenny (kenny@revolutionannapolis.com).
BECOME // HAT AND GLOVE DRIVE
The Assistance League of the Chesapeake is looking to collect hats and gloves for children in need this holiday season. If you would like to help, you can drop off donations at Taylor Funeral Home on weekdays between 9-4.
BELIEVE // DO YOU HAVE QUESTIONS?
As we continue to gather online, one consequence is that there are fewer opportunities for casual conversations or even quick words with Kenny or other members of our Revolution staff. If you ever need to talk about where you are or where you would like to go in your relationship with Jesus, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Kenny anytime by email (kenny@revolutionannapolis.com) or by phone (803.727.8500). He loves questions!!
BECOME // FOOD PANTRY VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY
If you’ve been looking for a chance to serve our community on a weekend, we have an opportunity for you! LoveAACO is sponsoring a “pop-up pantry” every Saturday at Tyler Heights Elementary. Thousands of guests are being served through this location, and there is a high need for helping hands. To learn more, click the link HERE and sign up to help out!
BELONG // REVMIDDLE AND REVHIGH
If you are a middle schooler or high schooler, Revolution’s youth group is for you. If you would like to connect in this season, please get in touch with our team leader, Bailey Nilsen, at revyouth@revolutionannapolis.com.
