Sidona and the Widow’s Offering

In a world where generosity takes many forms, the story of Sidona* exemplifies the power of giving. Inspired by the biblical account of Nehemiah, where each person and church had a unique place on the wall to rebuild, Sidona has carved out her own space in this mission. Each month, she faithfully sends $10 along with a heartfelt note of encouragement.

Her consistent gift echoes the sentiment of the widow’s offering in Mark 12:41-44, reminding us that the true value of a contribution lies not in its size, but in the heart behind it. At Love INC MoCo, we are blessed with numerous widows who, like Sidona, are committed to investing in the transformation of lives within our community.

These gifts are the lifeblood of our organization, serving several vital purposes:

Sustaining Operations: They ensure that our daily services and programs run smoothly, allowing us to provide essential support to those in need.

Fostering Community Support: Regular contributions create a sense of community and shared purpose, encouraging others to join in and support our mission.

Building a Strong Foundation: Each gift accumulates over time, providing a stable foundation that allows us to plan and execute long-term initiatives effectively.

The generosity of our donors, represented by these faithful widows, is crucial as we work to “build the walls” in our community. The church stands as a pillar of support, bringing together families who may be broken, offering them healing and a sense of belonging.

Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to our goal of transforming lives and helping our communities thrive. These widows are not just donors; they are part of our Centurion Campaign, where we seek 100 investors to contribute $10 a month to support our mission.

As of now, we currently have 15 participants in this impactful initiative, and we look forward to welcoming more generous hearts into our mission. Remember, you can continue to make a difference in the lives of our neighbors, one act of kindness at a time.
