I am proud of the people that make up The Pursuit Christian Church. The way they rally around a specific need gets me going. This past Friday, we were allowed to setup post outside both entrances of the local Wal-mart where we encouraged people going into shop to pick up a few additional items to donate to our School Supply Drive. Thanks to the shoppers who really stepped up. One guy we met, named Jim, (far left in the group picture) saw what we were doing, grabbed some flyers and served for four hours!
A few days ago, I posted about an article that found the city of Miami to be the least generous city in the United States. I beli
eve there is a direct correlation between that statistic and the fact it is one of the most unchurched areas in the U.S. The way of Jesus teaches it's better to be generous than to horde stuff and live life like everything revolves around us. The need is great for Jesus-loving churches in SoFlo full of Christ-followers who are willing to serve others and be good news to the community.
We haven't arrived, but we're off to a good start.
