Hands & Feet Coat Drive

rtnissley — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 18:30:43 +0000

During September, Faith 1270 & Life 96.5 are inviting you to share warmth with residents in our community who will be in need of winter coats! You can be the hands and feet of Jesus by donating your no longer needed clean and gently worn winter coats in men’s, women’s, youth, and children’s sizes. They must be free of rips and tears, with working zippers, or not missing buttons or fasteners.

You may bring your warm coat donations to Guest Services Center at the Empire Mall (in Center Court right next to Cinnabon) through Saturday, September 25^th, or collect them throughout the month and bring them to our one-day Volunteer Sioux Falls event from 10am-2pm at Avera Living Well Center, 2400 South Minnesota Avenue. Look for the Life 96.5 van in the parking lot.

Items donated at the Faith 1270 / Life 96.5 Coat Drive will benefit low-income residents through 3 local agencies: The Center of Hope, The Answer Center, and The Multi-Cultural Center, all in Sioux Falls.

Why Hands & Feet?

At Faith 1270 and Life 96.5, we believe each follower of Christ is called to be His hands and feet in our homes, communities, and the world. Serving in Jesus name is the concept behind Life 96.5 Hands and Feet. Each month we introduce you to a new project or organization in our area that we’d like you to know more about. Hands and Feet gives you an opportunity to serve our community by getting involved in what these groups are doing by serving as the hands and feet of Jesus.

Brushes of Hope – Hands and Feet

cdheeren — Mon, 24 May 2010 14:04:39 +0000

It took about 8 hours for 8 of us to prime and paint an entire ranch house.. with a double garage. Norberg Paints in Sioux Falls provided all the paint, brushes and rollers. Habitat for Humanity provided a trailer full of supplies. And the staff of Life 96.5 and Faith 1270.. along with some friends of the station completed the task in 8 hours. We started at about 9:45, and primed the entire exterior of the home by 12:45.. when we stopped for lunch. We then started up again.. with a smaller crew, but were able to put a single top coat, and trim out all the doors and windows by 6:15.

What’s great to see is how the homeowners are touched by the generosity of the workers. They’re overwhelmed. But what’s also rewarding is the blessing the volunteers receive from spending time thinking of someone else’s needs.. even if it’s just for a day.

It’s also fun. Stu Norberg gave us all the tips we needed to paint better. In fact he coached each of the teams for the entire morning.

If you’d like to learn more.. check out the new stories at KDLT.com and KSFY.com. The REGISTRATION FORM to sign up a team is right here at Faith 1270. Be the Hands and Feet. It’s a simple way to get started in serving the community, and being blessed at the same time.

If you have questions about becoming a Hands and Feet volunteer or setting up a team.. call Faith 1270 at 339-1270.

If you have questions about a home being eligible for painting.. call the Sioux Falls Habitat for Humanity at 332-5962.
