James 1:27 says, “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress.”
This fits in really well with Christ Fellowship’s call to minister specifically to the poor, the addicted and the incarcerated. And it is part of the reason we have loved doing the Operation Christmas Child shoe boxes for all these years.
This year, we have not made as big of a deal about it as usual because everything has been so up in the air about where we are going to be next month. But our annual packing party is this Sunday night at 6. It is much earlier this year so we don’t have to worry about moving all the stuff when we move the rest of the church stuff. So, bring a munchie or something to drink and join us this Sunday night as we pack up all the boxes to ship to kids all over the world.
Also, there will be a short “family meeting” this Sunday morning after worship to discuss the options we have for the move.
I can’t wait to see you all there! I love you all! — Todd
