A Flint mother who takes care of four children received the surprise Christmas gift of a lifetime, and a group of children at a church got a lesson on giving.

On Thursday afternoon, children and staff from New Lothrop Church of the Nazarene presented Flint resident Brittany Davis with a new car at Priority Children in Flint.

Pastor Andrew Bradshaw said the church staff came up with the idea in October, and presented it to the church's children at the end of the month. Bradshaw said the children and church patrons didn't sell any items to raise money: They simply gave their own money that they had already had, and the church held collections from the congregation for the month of November.
