Yikes. Our town doesn't have non-denominational churches, but does have some variety. The pastors meet together to plan certain events that have been happening for many years before any of the current pastors arrived here. Some pastors are barely dragged into cooperating, some are OK with it nominally, but have no organizational skills. Our pastor sees the value of the group and also has the organizational skills, so she has become the driving force of it.<BR/><BR/>We really need this sort of group to help needy people in our area. They have a bank account for this. But also, we need these people to cooperate when times are good in case something bad comes up. Which it has in the past. No need telling stories of local tragedies, but they do happen, everywhere.LoieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977264499770654307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10838182.post-68389110303140119962009-04-06T13:31:00.000-07:002009-04-06T13:31:00.000-07:00Hi Lutheranchik!

Wasn't that painful? I meant it when I said, go forth and serve. God loves you!<BR/><BR/>KateM (kmaver@att.net)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
