OPEN DOOR CHURCH June 19th We had another amazing, rewarding and awesome time of loving and serving the large group of homeless who attend the Saturday afternoon church service at the old Sevier Heights Baptist Church in East Knoxville. We had many new and returning volunteers who said they really enjoyed helping and serving and experiencing a different kind of church service. A big thank you to all of the hard-working Servants of Christ: Karen and Kurt Chandler, the Heineken family, Tiffany Ogier and kids, Jeff Armstrong, Mack and Makenzie Ayers, Mark Scarbrough, Rachel Wenger, Cody Jenike, and the Cullata family. (please forgive us if we left anybody out) We can't effectively put into words how incredible this serving opportunity has been. The people who help put on the service are so grateful and loving towards us and make us feel like we are really making a difference. We are starting to really get to know some of the homeless folks and actually wish we could go every Saturday to continue to build the relationships that have started from our once-a-month visits. |
Please prayerfully consider if and how God may want to use you to support this worthwhile outreach. Do you have a few hours to give on a Saturday every other month? Do you have a few extra dollars you could donate to help pay for the meal we buy, prepare and serve? (The food usually costs between $300 - 400) Or, could you commit to praying for Open Door Church and the Z Foundation every third Saturday afternoon each month? |
Thank You! |
