“…but love your neighbor as yourself.
I am the LORD."
Leviticus 19:18
Donation Classes
God asks us to love our neighbor as
ourselves (Matthew 19:19). A simple way we show this love
for others is by offering Donation classes in
which all proceeds from a certain class or series of classes
are donated to a worthy cause. When we come together to
honor and lend a hand to someone in need, we experience
a true sense of community and catch a glimpse of how God
meant for us to live with one another. The result is love;
we love because He loved us first (1 John 4:19).
We had the privilege of helping Ana and her three daughters
when they relocated to our community after Hurricane Katrina.
We enjoyed a worshipful practice as we came together as
the body of Christ and raised enough funds for rent and
clothing.
We came together for two classes honoring Monica, who
moved from her home with her three children and mother
due to abuse issues. Through the money raised, Monica
and her family were relocated to a safe home with first
month’s rent paid.
God blessed us by allowing us to honor Reed and Kim
Skinner and their three children, who were called to full
time mission work at Emmanuel Orphanage in Honduras, home
to 450 children, with a class that helped raise funds
for their ministry. You can meet the awesome Skinner family
and support their passion for furthering Christ’s kingdom
by visiting: www.forhiskingdom.org.
We most recently held a donation class for our dear
friend, Karen Smith, who was diagnosed with metastasized
breast cancer in December, 2007. You can read about Karen’s
amazing story of faith at www.carepages.com;
name: karenannsmith.
St. Teresa of Avila said it well:
"Christ has no body on earth now
but yours; No hands, but yours;
No feet, but yours;
Yours are the eyes through which
he is to look out his
Compassion to the world.
Yours are the feet with which he
is to go about doing good.
And yours are the hands with which
he is to bless us now."
Please check our Home Page for information on upcoming
Donation Classes. If you know of someone in need or would
like to request a Christ Centered Yoga™ Donation Class
for an individual, agency or worthy cause, please contact
Becky: becky@christcenteredyoga.org.
Outreach
Using the same biblical principle
as Donation classes, we show the love of Christ in an Outreach capacity
by bringing complimentary Christ Centered Yoga™ classes
to groups and organizations. These have recently included
an active, fun filled time with the children and volunteers
of Torch Urban Ministries and a deeply
moving experience with our brothers and sisters struggling
with addiction via the Friends of Recovery ministry.
Outreach is at the heart of what we believe. Please
contact Becky with Outreach requests: becky@christcenteredyoga.org or
(770) 861-8420.
Scholarships
We want everyone with a desire to
experience Christ Centered Yoga™, either in the form of
classes or teacher intensives, to be able to do so. If
you have a scholarship request, please contact Becky: becky@christcenteredyoga.org or
