Ok the point I think I was trying to make is this person called and
left a message at several local churches. Many churches have certain outreach policies, like my sister's church (Avondale United Methodist in Jax) they are refer people to Westside something ,which is a non-profit organization supported by a group of inter-denomational churches.Yes they help others outside their church but unless you know someone to call directly other than the office number it takes longer than 24 hrs.
Now my pastor would help anyone anytime. But if you called the church office instead of him directly, there would be a delay as the information would have to be channeled in the right direction.
Miss Kitty I was up in arms back 3 years ago because my son went on
mission trip out of the county when I though I needed his help right here.I told him, our pastor, and anyone who would listen too.I pretty much told them all what they could do with their mission work. I guess every situation is different,and it turned out my son knew more about the whole situation than his mama did. Now life is good
I'm really not trying to create controversy here. But this thread really bothers me . Its not always so black and white, there is a lot of
grey area. Again, I'm
not trying to be rude to
anyone. MAybe I should go back to lurking?? But how then could I make my football picks???
