Vicar Jon organized a block party as part of his requirement for graduation from seminary. We were asked to be part of the assignment - music for the block party. The children loved the games, food and prizes, while the adults enjoyed fellowship, food and meeting a few new friends.
Dave and I enjoyed getting to spend some time with our old friends, Jon and Jennifer Niebuhr.
An outreach event does not always meet the intended goal. Maybe we dream too big or expect too little. God makes appointments for us and all we need do is be there. The party in Carver was attended by many church members, and a few families who live within walking distance, the reason for the party. The day proved worth the effort and gave Vicar Jon an opportunity to introduce himself and give witness of his living faith over hot dogs and chips.
I am praying that a party will pave the way for new relationships and saving faith.
