Giving your offering the African way — that’s what the LaLoma Grace Brethren Church, Modesto, Calif., did on Sunday as they took an offering for well maintenance in the Central African Republic. “This was an awesome scene this morning at church. … We did the offering the way they do it in Africa. Everybody brings their offering to the front in a very energetic and joyful way,” said Pastor Joel Richards as he posted these photos on Facebook. GraceConnect shares them here with his permission.
