7,500 boxes sold!!!
Greetings from the Hallelujah Toffee Kitchen!
We are officially sold out for the year! That’s 7,500 boxes of Hallelujah Toffee sold in two months. HALLELUJAH!
Before we enter the new year, we wanted to take a moment to thank God for His blessings upon our endeavors. Just to list a few….
He provided funds for ingredients this summer.
He miraculously provided packaging which arrived long before it was expected.
He brought new volunteers who strove for excellence without any prompting.
He kept our kitchen safe, with no burns and no hiccups in production.
He allowed us space to pack all of the toffee in one day!
He gave us the capability to daily fulfill orders, ultimately packing and shipping over 400 orders in two months.
He brought incredible distribution partners alongside us, who sell our item with no markup.
He blessed us with customers who are enthusiastic, patient, supportive and generous.
He blessed us with donors, who just wanted to give to Hallelujah Outreach Ministries, so we can further the work being done around the world.
He multiplied our funds, our time, and our energy, so we can give even more this year!
If you have prayed for us, purchased our toffee, or shared our business with others, you are a part of this good report and we thank you!
Let us tell you where the earned funds are going this year.
Eastern Europe:
With approximately 40% of power stations destroyed in the country of Ukraine, the urgent needs in this area are warmth, power, water, and peace. Our outreach partners on the ground are providing right now in the following ways:
Food distribution in Ukraine, December 2022
Christmas gifts through Immanuel’s Child, in Ukraine
ministering to the hearts of those displaced by the war in Ukraine
generators and diesel fuel
wood stoves for pastors, counselors, and ministry partners
blankets
winter jackets distributed
Christmas gifts to the orphans in the area
Food parcels* (postponed due to bombing in the area but will continue in January)
Kenya:
Our missionaries on the ground, Keith and Tanya Tackett, (seen here on the right packing toffee in the kitchen this year!!!) go to the unreached areas of Kenya with the Good News of Jesus. Staffed with Kenyan brothers and sisters, Enkai’s Children ministers to the hearts, minds, and bodies of Kenyans in various ways. We will be helping them with this evangelistic outreach, primarily with funds to purchase a four-wheel drive vehicle that can go to otherwise unreachable areas.
We can’t wait to share exact numbers in our giving, as soon as we tie up the last of our bookkeeping! Update to come in January!
Things are cooking around here! 2022 Fall update
We have toffee! 5,500 pounds of it to be exact!
We have a new logo.
Formerly, our logo was the continent of Africa. But this year, we decided to include the whole world in our logo and our giving. As always, 100% of our profits will go to like-minded outreach ministries. This year, those ministries are in Kenya, but also in the former Soviet Union. You can learn more about them here.
We have new packaging.
The amazing folks at On Line Bindery worked with us all summer to design packaging which reflects our new logo, our broadened vision, and our continued heart for Christ Jesus.
New packaging thanks to Online Bindery
We have an expanded vision.
We are ready for the 2022 season, and we are so thankful for each moment to serve one another, our customers, and ultimately, our Father.
Our shared goals are the following:
Make excellent toffee
Raise funds for ministries we are passionate about
Fellowship and work as the Body of Christ
Share the love of Jesus with anyone we have contact with
We have passionate volunteers
This year, as new volunteers rise up, we look back and can hardly imagine how we ever did it without them. What sweet fellowship is found when brothers and sisters in Christ work side-by-side on a shared goal!
“But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.” 1 John 1:7
Friends for close to 40 years, Liz and Jeannie were sequestered in the windowless processing room. Still smiling!
Aunt Tracy
Also her apron matches her toffee.
Michelle
Never stops smiling or working.
Our 2022 Hallelujah Toffee family has grown this year in number, but more importantly, in devoted team members. They come and go as they are lead, and we are in awe.
If we were to ask any one of our volunteers why they do what they are doing, their answer would be simple: “Jesus.”
We pray the following for you, our readers and supporters. “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.” Romans 15:13
Love,
The Kitchen Crew
Many Hearts Make Joyful Work
