Project Light

“Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path” (Psalm 119:105 NIV).🪔✝️

As we move into this new Spring season, we’re reminded that God’s Word brings light wherever it goes. When someone can read, they can discover the light of God’s Word illuminating their own path through life.

Through our March outreach efforts in the Huntersville and Park Place neighborhoods of Norfolk, VA, Project Light continues to share its Bible-based literacy materials and age-appropriate Bibles via LAUNCH (Learning, Access, Unity, Nutrition, Career, & Health) outreach and in partnership with Elm Life Publishing.

Together we shared:

✝️53 Project Light Bible-Based Literacy Activity Workbooks 20 age-appropriate Bibles and 10 metal cross with the inscription “God Loves you” and a poem that accompanies the cross.

📒51“Think it, Speak it, Write it, Do it!” Elm Life Publishing Packages featuring a beautifully illustrated inspirational children’s book, Coloring activity with positive declarations, & A 7-day declaration journal to encourage young minds.

🎶10 Project Light “Who God Says I Am” A–Z scripture-based affirmation song QR Codes for free download of our ABC song.

📚25 donated Christian Books.

Each lesson taught from a Project Light Bible-based Activity Workbook, each passage studied in a new Bible, each chapter read from a Christian book, we believe, helps guide the recipient one step closer to truth, hope, and a deeper understanding of God’s love.

Jesus declared “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life” (John 8:12 NIV).

Over the holidays, in celebration of the “light of life” Jesus’ birthday, Project Light participated in three separate community outreaches. One outreach was held at the Garden of Prayer #3 Church (Norfolk, VA). The same day, another outreach, at Booker T. High School (Norfolk, VA) in partnership with the Homework Club at the Jordan-Newby Community Feed Center -- a huge event and success! The third outreach, on December 20, was held at Mason Memorial Church of God (Norfolk, VA) in partnership with LAUNCH (Learning Access, Unity, Career & Health), Operation Blessing and other Churches and ministries was another well-attended event and success! Project Light and Ministry partners shared about Jesus’ light around the city of Norfolk!

Along with Project Light’s Bible-based Literacy materials, free groceries, clothing, a hot meal, hundreds of age-appropriate Bibles and toys were provided. The recipients were not only very excited to receive our literacy materials and Bibles but to see Project Light’s very own Grinch who accepted Jesus and was kind and loving as his heart was full of the love of Jesus!

Project Light joyfully distributed:

✝️358 age-appropriate Bibles. We are thankful to Larry Hull at John Knox homes who helped us purchase the Bibles.

📚225 Literacy Packets containing Project Light’s Bible-Based Literacy Activity Workbook, our “Who God Says I Am” A–Z scripture-based affirmation song, and “The Cross in Your Pocket” poem & metal cross

📒98 “Think it, Speak it, Write it, Do it!” Elm Life Publishing Packages featuring a beautifully illustrated inspirational children’s book, Coloring activity book with positive declarations, & A 7-day declaration journal to encourage young minds

As we closed out 2025 (keeping with our Christmas theme), Project Light gratefully reflected on the honor it was to journey with many who stepped out of darkness into the Light of Life made possible through the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
