I read back through some old comments earlier today and noted that my comment from October 31, 2005 mentioned some people who had spoke the previous Sunday about missions. I commented about how great it was to hear from people who had dedicated their lives to evangelism. This year, I want to compliment our children. If you missed last Sunday's worship, led by our youth, you missed an uplifting time of worship. Not only were we led in worship but we got to see how much work Tom and Erin Fodi are putting into our youth. Give Tom and Erin and our kids a big "thanks" when you see them.
Get ready for the holidays by looking for ways to serve others. My family will be serving meals at a local shelter. That is easy to do and helps us keep our prosperity in the proper light. We are truly blessed but many are not as fortunate.

A Time for Service
Yesterday was a great day for Central Christian. You rose up mightily in your response to the call for servant workers. Approximately 38 of us agreed to be involved in the interfaith hospitality network where we will provide food and spend the night at Trinity Baptist to help those families who find themselves without a place to sleep temporarily. You did yourselves proud yesterday. I really appreciate your willingness to expend some time helping others. What better month than November to start this! As we approach Thanksgiving, let us remember that God has blessed us bountifully and we can do no less than to share what we have with others.
Be looking forward to other opportunities to let the love of God shine through us.
