THE LIGHTHOUSE CHURCH IS HUMBLED TO SERVE HUMBLE

Mega Church in Houston Give Back to Their Congregation in a Major Way This Holiday Season

Houston, TX (prHWY.com) December 23, 2013 - Houston, TX -- On Sunday, December 22, visitors and members of The LightHouse Church at 14000 Weckford Blvd. were treated to a delightful surprise during the 10:30 a.m. worship service for the church's annual "Christmas with the Children" event. The event is designed to acknowledge both the Lighthouse Church's congregation and ministries while also giving back to them in a major way. Of those surprised the most, were children in the church's "The Garden" ministry where children ages 2-12 years old partake in learning about the Christian salvation.

Unsuspecting children in attendance received the surprise of their life when oversized curtains were lifted to reveal a stage full of Christmas gifts and shiny superhero and Barbie themed bicycles for a randomly selected few that consisted of boys and girls. Pastor Keion Henderson randomly selected names that had been previously added to a bowl and presented each child with their bicycle as they ran up on stage visibly happy. The children in The Lighthouse Church's "The Garden" ministry weren't the only ones who received a holiday surprise on Sunday, visitors and current members of the church were also presented with envelopes of financial gifts.

"The excitement and twinkle in the eye of each child as they realized that the gifts and bikes on stage could be for them was amazing" said Jacqueline Hall Williams, Director of Quality at The Lighthouse Church. "It made all the planning that went into that day so worth it and was all the Christmas cheer we needed."

Overall, 25 children were gifted with bikes, 150 children total received a gift and both new and outstanding adult members received a financial gift. This act of generosity from Pastor Keion and The Lighthouse Church stems from the insightful pastor's current campaign titled " Do More than Give Thanks" where he urges people to not only receive blessings but o do their part to also be a blessing to others.
