An Invitation To Church Leaders
January 7, 2010
We would like to invite churches from around the Metro area to partner with Engage Atlanta and Samaritan’s Purse to join us in reconstructing homes impacted by last September’s floods. The need is immense. We have hundreds of families that we have already been in contact with who literally had their entire homes ‘gutted’. Many more are enduring this cold snap without sheetrock, insulation, or adequate flooring. The Federal Gov’t has provided some financial aid to these families, but it has been limited. The government is not in great position to provide the long term care and encouragement that these families need. I believe the right entity to be doing that is the local church.
This is a tremendous opportunity for churches of every shape, size, and color to come together in unity and lead the way.
Engage Atlanta is hosting a lunch for Pastors and Church Leaders on January 14th at 12:00 pm at Pappasito’s located at 2788 Windy Hill Road in Marietta, near the junction of I-285 and I-75.
We are also going to take some time to discuss our “Community Makeover” happening July 25-27, 2010, and how it can be used by each church to engage their own communities and continue to be a valuable tool in flood relief.
Everyone Belongs,
Paul
