Live Generosity. Spread God's Love. Share Healing. 

Generosity Starts With YOu

In 2010, Faith Christian Center started the You Got Blessed Project, now Generosity Week, to be more intentional about spreading the love of God throughout our city during the holiday season by doing random acts of kindness for total strangers. 
2023 Generosity Week Recap

generosity week

During this holiday season brighten someone's day through an unexpected, random act of kindness. 

Live generosity

Give freely and spontaneously. Don't have a stingy heart. The way you handle matters like this triggers God's blessing in everything you do, in all your work and ventures.
– Deuteronomy 15:10 (MSG)

spread god's love

God is generous. Living a life of generosity improves the life of the receiver and the life of the giver. Generosity should be shown to everyone, it’s not just reserved for those who are in need.

spread healing

For many, the holidays can be more sorrowful than joyful. Emotions such as loneliness, anger, and grief can easily overtake the spirit of cheer. Share healing with a generous random act of kindness.
