Generosity

Read: James 1:22-23; 2:14-17

Depending on who is talking - - America is the most generous group of people on earth. No matter where a disaster happens in the world, America is there first and with the most aid. The disaster with the most direct connection to our church was Hurricane Katrina. For several years our people went to Louisiana on the VIM trips to help restore houses, etc.

Now our people are working nearby at the Cass Community Center (Brady Bldg). The work is to restore the building so that it can house homeless women and children. The group has as the sole means of support the annual "palooza" dinner and auction at church. To show our degree of support: among the many baked goods and offers of service, for example a pie can go for $300 and someone wearing socks can generate $400. There couldn't be a greater display of Americans support for those in need.

God bless America.

God bless our church family.
