Opportunity of a lifetime

Just wanted to take the time to let everyone know about the opportunities available for us to unleash within out community, state, country, and world.
The annual women’s salad supper gave us the chance to hear about opportunities in the foster care system and the world of adoption, in our community at Jessica’s Closet and/or as a mentor to refugees new to our community, and across oceans by simply purchasing bags made by Sheku and David.
The church leadership also took the time to share the initiatives that they feel we can participate in on a church wide basis. The leadership identified seven areas to focus on. The church will continue to work with the sponsorship of children at the Prime System School of Christ in Monrovia, Liberia, Water4Christmas, Rebuilding Together Muscatine, and The Salvation Army. In addition, we will work with Kids against Hunger, Foster Care & Adoption, and Public School Partnerships with Jefferson Elementary.
My good friend, Audra Diedrichs summed it all up well. “We have an opportunity and a calling to unleash upon our community. It is important to reach a hurting world, to offer real truth and hope. When we unleash it is all about action. You advocate, seek justice, work, persevere, love, serve, give, listen, care, cry, encourage, build, write, hurt, speak, motivate, create, teach, lead, inspire, pray, read, praise, volunteer, feed, invite, clothe, free…. You reach a world, a country, a state, a community, a neighborhood, a family or one individual who will have true hope because you chose to unleash.”
Don’t just sit there, get out, get involved and Uleash!
