REQUEST NOW Sparrow Partnership  Sparrow Birdhouse Teapopt Sparrows hold symbolic significance in the Bible, often representing God’s care and concern for even the smallest creatures. The seemingly insignificant gifts they contribute to our ecosystem are enough in the eyes of the Lord. Likewise, our contributions to this world as people, be it small or large, are making a difference … one person at a time. This is the POWER of Sparrow Partnership. The more you serve people by pouring out your heart to them, the greater the measure of goodness and love that returns to you. Even if you feel like you don’t have much to give, when you offer what you have, your Savior will multiply it into much more. He has given you a double portion so you can pour out blessings from a brimming pot — never depleted or running dry — but gently spilling over from the spring of goodness within. This is the ESSENCE of Sparrow Partnership… For your monthly gift of just $20 or a one-time gift of $240, we’ll welcome you to our Sparrow Partner family by sending you these special gifts:  PARTNER WITH HOUR OF POWER Copyright © 2024 *Hour of Power* All rights reserved.
