Fw: b log

what world we live in ..the deputy mayor of mamorneck is on ch 12 with the Hannah storm, talking about how much almost evacuated...the families in washingtonville and parts of the town..could have been a challenge...
we tend to go from disaster to disaster these days, hurricane to storm..political crisis to town crisis today ...
and just keep plugging..a faith community leader asked, where does the congregation get involved, have we created only ceremonies or cocoons that dont stand in the gap to imrpove situations....there are many great faith communities that get involved, many that get out in communities, many more that need to plant in communitiies..often i feel we are in communtiies that there is a real void, perhaps because of challenges..
unable to solve them...our HIT teams, made up of interfaith reps..Habitat Interfaith Teams..are on the move this fall, helping to get in those communities to help challenge and care about the families and people in those communities...pray for the success of these Interfaith teams, of this county, of getting back to basics of real community... get your congregation involved...God bless, jjk
