Inner City Action Group Update

Saturday morning we had our monthly GUYS breakfast. We had as our guests Toby Sullivan and Trevor Clark, who are on staff at the Inner City Action Group. We have committed our next service project to them. We will be refurbing an area into a food pantry for them. I encourge you to get involved at whatever level you can. It will benefit you more than them. Toby's talk to us was encouraging because of his level of passion to do the work he is doing. But as he talked, I couldn't help but think that they are doing church the right way; they determined the needs of the people they were trying to reach and tailored their ministry to meet those needs. They didn't assemble a team of people who would do church they way they like to do church then wonder why no one came. Since moving into the former Grace A/G facility they have been growing because of their focus on those they wish to help over their wish to have a "nice" church. I will be telling you more about them in the future.
