Lifenite - SERVICE "Loving your neighbor!"

Following the wonderful message of the Gospel for this past Sunday we learned why and how we can love our neighbors in our Lifenite.

I loved the metaphor of the Dead Sea and our faith. Think of our faith like a sea. A sea that has an inlet and an outlet. Love and grace flow into and out of our faith like water into and out of a sea. The outlet of our faith is our love for others and everything we do to show that love. If we dam that outlet so our water doesn't flow out then it dies. The Dead Sea has no outlet so the water in it can only evaporate leaving behind a faith that cannot sustain life. So we learn that our faith must flow out of us to all those around us. Pretty cool when you think about it.

Some good service opportunities are:
- This Friday (Oct. 28th @ 5pm) helping with the Edge Halloween Party for middle school teens
- Bring old coats this next Sunday at Lifenite for those in need this winter
- Weds Nov. 9th at 6pm making sandwiches for a soup kitchen in the PLC

Thank you PM's for all that you do! Keep it up!
Huge thanks go to Laura Brown for giving us a first hand view of the destruction of Katrina and her work in the relief efforts!

God Bless Everyone!!!
