My Top 5 Reasons for Giving to St. PetersDebra Warner5. I am personally challenged to grow spiritually by opening my eyes to injustice in the world and my backyard.4. There are many items I could buy with my money that I really dont need and will not add to the value of my life. Yet the same money can make a huge difference to someone with more basic needs.3. I want my girls to grow up in a church that welcomes all people and lets you question your faith.2. My Anna writes a story at school about helping the homeless and wants to know if her new IHN friend can come to our house for a sleep over. 1. Grace sang the Christmas song from the childrens program a 100 times, and I never got tired of it. Expanding our circles of giving.Yesterday. Today. Tomorrow.
