It's almost December and that means it's time for all the Holiday festivities and Christmas cheer! 2020 has been a long year full of twists and turns for just about everyone. We are all in need of our spirits to be lifted and to celebrate the joy that the season of Thanksgiving and Christmas should bring to everyone's hearts!

Christian Care Ministry, which facilitates the Medi-Share program, reached a milestone in 2018 of serving its members for 25 years. CCM leadership and its Board of Directors wanted to celebrate the milestone and considered a number of possibilities. Traditionally, national organizations have hosted splashy 25th Anniversary dinners or events inviting dignitaries to commemorate the milestone. Christian Care Ministry went in a different direction.

Meet Jim Sparling! A husband, dad, business owner, and grateful Medi-Share member. Jim was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma and walks through the struggles he's faced and how he has been impacted by the wonderful Medi-Share community through it all. His testimonial is a beautiful picture of how our God works through our brothers and sisters in Christ to bring support, love, and encouragement during our time of need. We know you will be touched by Jim's story just as we were!

Christian Care Ministry (CCM) has some outstanding employees, and this week we were able to speak with Tonya Moore, one of our Contact Center leaders. As we prepare for our third annual Day of Sharing on October 3, we asked her a few questions about her volunteer experiences while at CCM.

It might look a little different than in years past but Christian Care Ministry employees in Colorado Springs, Colorado; Melbourne, Florida; and in some of our remote locations will once again volunteer in their communities on Saturday, October 3rd for the third annual Day of Sharing. In addition to wearing t-shirts to commemorate the annual event, employees will also be sporting branded CCM face masks and hand sanitizer while out serving.

More than just once a year on the annual Day of Sharing, Christian Care Ministry and its employees have a heart for serving in the surrounding communities all year round. But when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, employees and others all across our country were left wondering how to help during these times of social distancing.
