Good Luck Friday!

Just wanted to wish the 30 Hour Famine Participants Good Luck as the begin their fasting.  Hang in there.

 

What follows is the first page of the Friday Devotional book that was written to aid you as you begin the 30 Hour Famine.



            Whether this is your first 30 Hour Famine or you are a “veteran” of this event, you are being asked to make it your fight this year.  What does that mean?  Make what your fight?  Is this just about raising a few dollars for hungry kids?  Maybe you just want to add another service project to your personal checklist.  Some are just following the lead of another.  Whatever the reason you have arrived at this point in your life, it is the hope of the leaders of this event that you become a fighter for those that are in need.


            Approaching this year’s Famine the challenge to MAKE IT YOUR FIGHT brought a question that was asked of Jesus to mind.  And who is my neighbor? (Luke 10:29)  That is what this is about.  Helping neighbors.  The question you have to ask yourself and maybe even answer on Saturday for someone else is who is my neighbor?  We live in a culture that claims to be Christ Followers, but when it comes to helping neighbors things change.

            We are OK helping someone as long as we know that they are people who share our values.  We want to put conditions on our help.  It is very easy to then pick only those that look similar to us.  Those that might be a different color, different shape, poorer, had made mistakes, loved differently, been in jail, sick, or just different.  Soon our call from Christ to “Tend my Sheep” (John 21:16) becomes us sitting in judgment.

            Be aware whom you are fighting for.  These are people that live drastically different lives from us.  They are different, they are the other.

Hello All!

Well once again forces beyond our control stopped an attempt to do normal youth activities.  It was down to the fourth possibility to have the Lock In at and the pump went out and there was no water.  If it gets done soon maybe we can have a Goonies Movie night there.

I am sorry that I missed you all Sunday.  I am getting better, but Dad has pneumonia.  Pray for him and pray for me as I deal with him.  Even though I felt like I had been run over by a bus I was able to get the Caswell Registration form into the mail.  There are Four spots for guys and 12 spots for girls.  I will try and have info to place in hand Sunday.  Our first Choice request was for July 20 -25 and the speaker is one we had up at Mars Hill.  Our Second Choice was for July 13 - 18 and a speaker I was not familiar with but looked OK.  We will know sometime by the end of the month if we are in and what date we have.
