Operation Love of Christ in Action
LOCIA is a ministry that was started by Retired Sergeant Major Willene Orr., United States Army. She was moved by GOD to not just talk about what should be done for those on the Frontline (during the pandemic and beyond) but to show the LOVE of Christ in action. In April 2020, it began with drawings. Willene would sketch as she was impressed by the Lord, and then put them on paper and foam board.
The artwork was transferred onto t-shirts, masks, mouse pads, coffee mugs, and coasters. Each item was embellished and delivered to those workers who were front liners, along with food. Since that initial demonstration of the love of Christ in action to front liners, she has suppled artwork and lunch to schoolteachers, police officers, and our military personnel. In His Image Global has partnered with LOCIA as another way of not just saying that you are loved and appreciated but proving that the love and appreciation is real!
