A Holiday Hero

The Brannen family has been blessed beyond measure this year. Back in May our Grammy was blessed with a new kidney.  The story of the donor, Chuck, is selfless and is a beautiful picture of how Christ selflessly gave his life for us, an undeserving people.  We are broken sinners who deserve hell yet Christ came down as a baby to save us so that we can have eternal life.  This is the good news of this Christmas season.

Chuck was nominated as a "Holiday Hero"  in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.  Yesterday there was a big write up on Chuck and Grammy on the front page of Section D in the AJC!!  The article was concluded with these lines....

Pitts said he merely followed the admonition of Jesus, who urged followers to care for others.
“I’ve always felt my faith was pretty simple,” Pitts said. “Wherever I am, that’s where my ministry is.”

Here is the link if you get a chance to read it.
