Why We Give — Russ Carter

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION: WHY DO YOU GIVE?

Since its inception, I have been blessed to be a healing prayer minister on Sunday mornings. During my time as a healing prayer minister, my faith has been both strengthened and challenged. I have been enriched by the gift of Love in bringing God’s comfort to my fellow St. Georgians. At times, I am emotionally and psychologically upset for what we pray, but even in these times of uncertainty, we can feel the strong presence of the Holy Spirit embracing both the prayer recipient and me. I have been truly blessed as a healing prayer minister at St. George’s.   — Russ Carter
