#8 Moving our Sunday Service & Breakfast to the Red Cross Shelter for Flood Victims (September 2009)

Thousands of people lost their homes in the Atlanta floods.  (I’ll talk more about this in another favorite moment.)  When we learned that hundreds of victims were living in a Red Cross shelter, we decided to up and move our Sunday service and breakfast from downtown Atlanta to Marietta.  We brought in some special guest singers, set up shop in the parking lot, had Crack Barrel donate a great breakfast, and hosted a Courageous Church service for the victims.

After it was over, we sponsored a great outdoor carnival with snow cones, clowns, inflatables, popcorn, cotton candy, face painting, and more.  It was a beautiful sight.  For just a few moments, those kids forgot about their troubles and had some real fun.  I was so proud of our church because no one thought twice and we made it happen!

Love God! Love People! PROVE IT!
