Congregation Connection

The late Kate Wolf penned a song that said, “Outside a country store, there’s a board on the wall, that’s filled with cards of every size…Everybody’s looking for the same thing…an old Chevy, a bass player, a country house on three acres, three bedrooms ABSOLUTELY Free.” While only God’s Grace is free and that old country store is gone, we still have a need to connect with each other on what we have or what we need. Were you ever looking for a sitter and didn’t know who to ask? Did you have extra zucchini and didn’t know who to give it too? How about telling people that you are willing to sew? How can you let people know that your hobby is scrap booking or that your business is landscaping? What if you have a dead tree? Maybe you heat with wood and want some free wood? What if you might have a need for some extra dishes for a college student starting an apartment life? Finally would you would rather spend your money with a HLC family member than a stranger? Well our NCD Health Team was looking over the many gifts that were shared through the simple questions, what are you good at, and what do you enjoy doing; and brainstormed an idea to make our bulletin board in the narthex get to work making connections. We’ll start with half the board, keep the notes to business card size, and pray that you make a connection that gives you just what you need.
