One of the things we decided when we started Redux – the new service at Antioch – was to always have something meaningful to strive for together.
Church services really run the risk of being too entertainment driven and passive. Having a common goal, however, allows us to actively do good as a result of meeting together.
How cool is it to see people’s needs being met simply because we’re getting together as a community!!
Anyway, right now we are in the middle of a Powerbar drive. We’re contributing them to the Bend Homeless Count that is taking place later on this month. (Next month we’ll start all over with a new ministry opportunity.) Who knows, this could actually be fun!!
After one week we’re already up to 237!!
This is awesome. Thank you all so much for helping support The Count (not the guy from Sesame Street).
