Back in the day, when people walked through the neighborhood, we would speak to people sitting on their front porch. The porch was the place to people watch and meet and greet your neighbor. As a child, it was the vantage point from which to watch the world go by.

Getting Started Again with our Haiti Giving
It has been awhile. My desire to communicate to you all is very important. As a pastor of an inner city church, we are always in need of resources. However, I am amazed at the generosity of those in need of help themselves. It reminds me, we are never so poor that we can not give to others. As pastor, I requested that we give toward the Haiti disaster as a church family to a ministry which already has networked churches in Haiti. We will be giving through the Lott Carey Baptist Foreign Missionary Convention. Our goal was to give $1000. On the first Sunday we as a church gave over $480 toward that goal. I am so honored to lead this wonderful congregation. Our first payment has already been sent. Naturally, everyone can give through the Red Cross, by texting "Haiti" to 90999. They will need all the help they can get. Let's all do our part.
