U.P.L.I.F.T. Christmas Party!

Our congregation participates in a vibrant ministry every Tuesday morning. It's called U.P.L.I.F.T - University Presbyterians Living in Faith Together. At 9:30am, residents in Austin and surrounding areas come to receive assistance with rent or utility bills. The Bill Murray Friendship Fund financially supports this ministry. Though we are blessed to give to those who come on Tuesday mornings, the clients give us so much when they arrive. We are strengthened as we have the opportunity to know them and learn from them. We give thanks that we can bless one another.

Yesterday U.P.L.I.F.T hosted a Christmas Party! In addition to help with rent and utilities, clients were able to choose Christmas gifts as well. Here are some pictures of the wonderful event!















Merry Christmas!
