You can make a real difference in the life of a fellow Christian through CHM Give. With extra donations, we help hundreds of members each year pay medical bills for maintained pre-existing conditions<\/a>. CHM Give is a testimony to the power of the Holy Spirit and the love Christians share with each other.
And it works: We share eligible medical bills until they\u2019re paid in full. Each year, CHM Give shares millions of dollars for members in need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A story of generosity through CHM Give<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When Larry and Jamie Giglio started Ragged Coffee, they wanted to use their business to bless others, asking \u201chow can we use a cup of coffee to reach people?\u201d They envisioned giving a cup of coffee to a homeless person and welcoming them in. That\u2019s how they started their business: giving away coffee, one cup at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Larry and Jamie joined CHM because it was more affordable than traditional insurance. As entrepreneurs, CHM gave them peace of mind. They could be present with their family and make their own healthcare decisions\u2014and they could give back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jamie said, \u201cIt\u2019s easy for us to give because that\u2019s what we\u2019re supposed to do. It\u2019s not ours to begin with. It\u2019s a joy to give.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One way Jamie and Larry give back is by donating a portion of their coffee sales to CHM Give. Little did they know that their giving would directly impact Diane of Valrico, FL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A gift received<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Diane Wingate joined CHM after her hairdresser told her about the ministry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After joining, she learned she needed a knee replacement. Since it was a maintained pre-existing condition, her bills were eligible for sharing through CHM Give.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diane said, \u201cBecause of the generosity of other people and CHM Give, I don\u2019t have to worry about how my bills are going to be paid. I can go on with my retirement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The generosity Diane received financially and spiritually from strangers was a huge encouragement. Reading cards with prayers and Bible verses written out warmed her heart. Larry and Jamie likewise experienced the joy of giving and receiving. Larry says, \u201cYou may not even know the people you\u2019re helping but your actions are going to have a lasting impact on their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jamie added, \u201cJust giving a cup of coffee, having a conversation, and meeting a particular need we see\u2014God calls us to do that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hearing others\u2019 stories, and giving to others to meet their needs, brings us together\u2014like a cup of coffee. CHM Give allows members like Larry and Jamie to have a direct effect on the lives of others. If you want to give, here\u2019s how you can take the next step:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
