Theme
Overflow:
Since the earliest days God has displayed His ongoing movement, power, and presence in and through this life-giving element…water. Our story opens with the spirit of God hovering over the chaotic waters bringing order, provision, and new life. The headwaters of His love began in the garden and flow through all eternity. But we, His creation, chose a different stream, one that serves ourselves and leads to a dry and weary existence.
Time and again God rains down His grace and love on His people. On humanity. On us.
He parts the waters, calms the seas, and makes streams in the wilderness. Saves us from the depths of ourselves and the waves of this world. Lifts us up out of the murky water to new life in His presence and with his power. Leads us beside quiet waters. Restores our soul. He fills us–but that is not all. God does not fill bottles to be capped, but vessels to be poured through.

Bring with project:
Providing Care Kits to meet health and hygiene needs in and around Tampa
Our goal across USA/Canada is to put together 100,000 Care Kits! To do this we are utilizing all of our churches (regardless of if they are sending students to NYC) so NMI will be helping to raise awareness!
