Todays topic is "Get Your Inheritance". Ahhhh if you remember last weeks message we touched on "How to get your Breakthrough", and next week we're starting a series about "Building Blocks of Success". I am not sure when we will discuss Domestic Violence nor HIV AIDS. We are going to keep our focus on our building fund and make sure we pack the house for Friends and Family Day. See the banner on the wall, Each One Reach One. All this month I will be fussing about you all not being consistent in your attendance and in tithing. Sister Jenkins I need you to do a ministry check and make sure we have relevant ministries that will suggest that we are building a healthy church. I know we have the mens ministry, dance ministry, SALT, women on the move for Christ, the childrens ministry, and the ministry that helps support the first family. Okay great that'll do it, we have everything in place. Are there any comments, questions, or suggestions?
Passor, in all my 20 years of going to chuch every chuch have the same ole ministries that just keep erybody busy. The womens ministry meet so Ms. Abegail can get her preach on but never is there intimate conversation addressing Domestic Violence, Obesity nor AIDS. None of the churches in this community have taken a stand and made these topics a priority and our folks are perishing. Everybody wanna be Mega but you don't take on Mega issues. Sister Joanne husband been beating her for the longest and then he come up in here deaconing. They say the church spose to be like the hospital. I don't mean to take up all the meeting time but I would jus like to see and hear real issues being addressed that meet people where they are. Most of the choir gettin beat either physically, verbally or mentally and skeered to talk about it for fear of being judged. Where is the HIV awareness and education ministry? How about a health ministry that address heart disease, obesity and the like? Or how about a ministry that celebrate women that are domestic violence survivors then teach them to help women in the same situation. Um leavin, um jus done. Every friends and family day everybody run and get their folks from other churches ain't nobody ministering to dem folks at the strip clubs. Do we have any other tools in place in this church for when those fast tail girls come besides a sheet to cover their legs? Um late for work.
