Community Outreach Dinner!
Please be in prayer for our church this Saturday. For the past several years we have done a community outreach dinner for Thanksgiving and Christmas. This dinner has grown to about 500 people that come to eat and fellowship with our church people. Some of them are homeless, some from various shelters and others are friends of our saints that don't normally come to church. They all come to eat and have a good time. We also have bags of goodies (donations from area businesses) that we pass out to those in need including some clothes and coats that have been donated.
There has been a great turn out from the community to help us in this effort. In fact the North East High School Basketball Teams (Guys & Girls) get into a heated discussion with their coaches as to who can come help serve. Our fellowship hall only seats about 100. So we have to rotate everyone in to feed them. I will update you with pictures I hope. Our digital camera was baptized while we were on the St John's River Cruise in Florida for my folks anniversary! We forgot to say in Jesus name! LOL!!
Thank you for stopping by today! It is my desire to share my thoughts and ideas to be encouraging and uplifting to you. So enjoy and feel free to leave your comment!
