Report from a Pastor Bill Ellis

Testimony From A Pastor

"An unexpected benefit has developed as a result of our church giving regularly to Convoy of Hope. People are becoming personally involved in missions. The church sent a team of individuals to Louisiana to assist with the hurricane relief and came back with first-hand stories of the great job Convoy was doing. Without exaggeration, it transformed their lives. Since then, three more teams from the church have gone to assist in the devastated areas of the South.

So, I guess what I’m saying is the benefit to Riverside is simply that it has proven to us that it truly is more blessed to give than receive."
