Your wonderful post reminded me of Christmas Eve 1998 when Gina and a large group of her high school friends collected gifts for a homeless man they all knew...and delivered their gifts to the vacant gas station where he resided.<BR/><BR/>Oh, well.

I remember people who came to my church who "didn't quite fit" usually due to class and education. Subtle ways were evident which were used to exclude them.(We were far to liberal not to be subtle) It is a difficult problem to be more accepting personally and institutionally. It has bothered me thoughout my involvement with churches.Tossing Pebbles in the Streamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04354065895900279070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31402520.post-297102770449206562008-12-23T11:49:00.000-05:002008-12-23T11:49:00.000-05:00I'm making the rounds to wish all of my blog frien...I'm making the rounds to wish all of my blog friends a <B>Merry Christmas!</B>Anvilcloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07974744042579564912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31402520.post-68993712226773529382008-12-22T22:19:00.000-05:002008-12-22T22:19:00.000-05:00A wonderful Christmas post Donna.

Since the events described in the post, the church in the story has experienced a decline. To survive, it has joined with several other churches. They had other problems--the miniter we liked left soon after we were there--and attendance dropped off.<BR/>Perhaps all those events help demonstrate that a church that serves "the least of these" stays vibrant.KGMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05165941950953938943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31402520.post-73138187815552585122008-12-22T17:01:00.000-05:002008-12-22T17:01:00.000-05:00As Liza says, worthy of much thought.
