This Sunday will be the 1st Sunday in October. We will have approximately 600 people present representing 200 family units. If each family unit is willing to bring 10 cans of fruit, if my math is correct, we will have over 2000 cans of fruit. It doesn't take much for each of us to bring a few cans of fruit to worship, but think of the great impact on people in need! Matthew 25:37-40 "Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?' Then the King will reply, "I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine you did it for me.'"
This week show your love for Christ by loving those in need. Bring your cans of fruit and place them on the podium. You'll be amazed at how much can be done when each member of the congregation helps. 1 Corinthians 12:27 "Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it."
