A sad day

The meeting is over

We spoke the words God gave us

They were not received so well

We are at an impass

All they can offer is helping us with a board

They can help put us in touch with other para ministry people

We need more

Our ministry is not their responsibility

They will pace with people, but not ministry

They don't know what the church's role is in a member's life either

Our senior pastor didn't even bother to attend

Some lies were spoken

We were disappointed

We are sad

Our hearts are broken

We are with out a church home

We are seeking His face

We are excited to see what He has for us

But first we must grieve our loss

Five years of our life and almost all our relationships are there

But God will heal

God will provide

I am so thankful God is not man!!!

I'm too am sorry things did not go well but God does have a plan for you guys. It is disappointing that they are not supportive but you have God's support and that is all you need. Hang in there and God will provide beyond what you could of imagined and will open many doors for Addy's Hope. I will truly miss seeing you guys there but I am glad I can keep in touch through your blogs.

I don't know exactly the curcumstances you are writing about but got enough of the gist-I am sorry your church body isn't embracing this opportunity to reach out as the hands and feet of Christ. I pray that God will soothe your hearts and lead you through the doors He will be opening-
Standing with you in prayer,
