View this email in your browser Building a Better Life March 11, 2023 "Yet when planted, it grows and becomes the largest of all garden plants, with such big branches that the birds can perch in its shade." Mark 4:32 Building a better life for yourself takes time, so be patient.

This Week's Offer In the Bible, God uses the commonness of the sparrow to demonstrate the magnitude of the unique worth, value, and significance we have in His Kingdom — and in the world. When we hear birds chirping melodiously in the spring, the music of our feathered friends lets us know that all is right in the world. Sparrows have a ritual known as “social singing” in which they call to each other from nearby shrubbery. While they are small compared to most other creatures, when they join forces and form a flock, their voice gets louder and their influence is multiplied. And so it is in the Body of Christ. This is the essence of Sparrow Partnership. Sparrow Partners help us proclaim God's love song to the world! For your monthly gift of just $20 or one-time gift of $240, we’ll welcome you to our Sparrow Partner family by sending you our Sparrow Chime Bell. In honor of our 2023 Sparrow Partners, this specially designed and hand-painted bell chime plays a gentle sound when met with soft breezes. Made of elegant and sturdy ceramic, the chime is embossed with a floral design and a peaceful sparrow perched on top — complete with a rope hanger for easy placement. We hope this gift reminds you of God’s love and the unique song you bring to the world every time it chimes! May you be blessed by this offer and remember as always, God loves you and so do we!
