I gave my $25, as well as my parents&#8217; match amount, for a total of $50 of warm drinks supplies to the EnKa Society in Winchester. EnKa is a non-profit organization in my town of Winchester, that provides non-perishable food items, household items, and clothing to nearly 100 residents in the local communities nearby. I chose to give it to my local food pantry because I love to know that these items will go to someone who deserves some love in my hometown. After all, God says to love your neighbors as yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>One of my favorite things about the holiday season is having a warm cup of tea or hot chocolate with my family by the Christmas tree. It brings me great joy, comfort, and peace to share quiet reflective time as a family. I believe that everyone should be able to feel God&#8217;s love and to enjoy those feelings throughout the holiday season, and hopefully, my gift can bring some comfort and peace to other people&#8217;s lives. As Jesus says, &#8220;Love your neighbor, as yourself!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>Mia Lock<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dec 11th &#8220;25 Days of Living in the Light!&#8221; &#8220;Jesus replied: \u201c\u2018Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.\u2019 This is the first and greatest commandment.
