–Guest blog from Paul Sims, Creative Arts and Administrative Pastor–

I’m sure your hearts have been heavy as you’ve heard and seen the devastation in the aftermath of this week’s earthquake in Haiti.  Our immediate reaction at seeing something so tragic is wondering how to best respond to help alleviate the suffering.  You may be wondering how we as a church can respond to this tragedy.

Tomorrow, at the end of our service we will be taking up a special offering for Haiti.  We have a unique opportunity to reach out in a way that is very personal, and will make an impact for years to come.  Please come ready to be generous tomorrow as our Pastor, Jim, shares with you the opportunity we have as a church to be generous and reach out in a powerful way.

James 1:27 says “Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you.

Compass, tomorrow we’re going to get as pure and genuine as we can get.  I can’t wait!
