Hello Folks,
     Just this past Saturday our youth Sunday School class sponsored an outreach.  They washed cars for free, gave hot dogs and bibles away.  They had a lot of cars stop and the approximately 35 people who washed cars were busy.  We had families helping with small children as well as some of our older adults.  I am not sure how many people stopped for the free car wash and hotdogs but many of them were curious about the congregation and willing received the material that was given.  What a joy it is to have people who are willing to do what they can in an effort to present Christ to our world. 
     I wonder how many of us are willing to wash cars or do something that is inconvenient for us in an effort to let our world know that there is a Savior who came so all of us could be saved?  Is that not the crux of the issue for us as followers of Jesus?  We may be willing to go to church but are we willing to try to reach people outside of our doors.  What opportunities could be given us if we were willing to be inconvenienced?  Maybe we could feed a family that said they were hungry like the folks did here this past Saturday.  Maybe we could get folks to tart thinking about their need of Christ like some of them did this past Saturday.  Maybe we could intersect with someone who really did not attend church and finally admitted that they only went every now and then.  Could it be possible that a car wash will be used by God to help people to consider their eternity? 
     Well, maybe this week you and I could decide that we will watch for someone that God will bring our way for us to witness to about Jesus.  Or, maybe we could find some way to witness to someone by our actions toward them.  What about it will you watch for someone that you could share Christ with?


Have a great one,
