Everybody has a talent! Dig deep and figure out what YOU can do to contribute! HOT needs people to commit to starting their projects NOW! Not sure where to start? Here are some ideas we've seen before:

PRAY
November  Prayer List:
- That the logistics and details of the April 21st  event comes together
- That we have enough projects and volunteers for the April 21st event

- That our hearts and minds would realize that this is not our mission, but it is God's and He will orchestrate this event 

- Transformation and cultivation of generosity will occur in leaders and people involved

- Wisdom, discernment, and communication for handling logistics

- That a discovery of God given talents will occur amongst individuals and that they will be willing to donate those gifts
- That people from both churches will be excited about this endeavor and desire to get involved
- Community publicity, participation, and awareness will grow

- That we will be good stewards of our money, so that we have more money to give
- That relationships between local churches will develop
