Relationships Make it Happen

At Christian Life Assembly, we've cultivated relationships with Lincoln High School (the largest high school in Des Moines) and the United States Marines. Two great things have come from those relationships in the last few weeks.

First, Lincoln High School agreed to let us present a school assembly called the Seven Project in February and follow it up with a youth event that evening. This is a great answer to prayer. We've been building a relationship for years--inviting their choir to sing at our church, having their basketball coach talk at our Men of Steel meetings, and contributing to their suicide prevention fund.

Second, the Marines just brought us 80 brand new bikes to distribute at our Toys for Tots Give Away this Saturday and Sunday. They said they immediately thought of us when they got the bikes because of what we've done to partner with them in the past!

Relationships make it happen!
