"The goal of SWAP is to encourage people to sacrfice what they want to ensure others have what they need. When a person SWAPs they are following the loving example of Jesus Christ who "swapped" His life for ours on the cross." - Jeff Greer
It’s as simple as this. You can S.W.A.P. a new outfit for a sewing machine which will help a woman start her own business and provide income for her family. You can S.W.A.P. a movie for a fruit tree or ice cream for a chicken. When a person S.W.A.P.s they are following the loving example of Jesus Christ who “swapped” His life for ours on the cross. Feed the hungry and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness and the darkness around you will be as bright as day. It is our desire to use S.W.A.P. to cultivate a culture of giving in our churches, in our communities and in our world. S.W.A.P. gifts should always be above and beyond a person’s regular giving. It should become a way of life not a special event. S.W.A.P. is not meant to benefit budgeted ministries in the church. It should be used as an outreach or missions tool. |
