Thanks to everyone who helped and donated there time and money to bring the community together.This was a very Successful outreach. This is how to  build the broken to change the world. I like that saying, It would just be a cliche' without taking action. As the Lord allows we will continue to bring outreaches throughout Skagit Valley uniting Churches and families together in the Love of Christ. Recently I was asked by a prominent Church leader what do we get out of it? by participating in an outreach similar to this one that I had been working on. It's not about what we get or are the people from these outreaches  going to come to our church and sit in our pews and give there tithes to our church, or is our name gonna be lifted up.The only name that ever should be lifted up is the name of Jesus Christ.Outreaches should be about helping people to see the authentic pure love of Jesus Christ and the Calling God has placed on there lives and to see them get planted in a church or Para church that the Lord would have them be in. So they may flourish in the courts of our God.... Period.... I was truly hurt when I heard that.... This cannot be our motive. So what do we get out of it? We get to know we did our best to help people come to know the Love of Christ  and help them come to the knowledge of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and possibly that one more life would be spared from Hell. Blessings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
