the snowball effect has begun :)

The ball is rolling.
Today in my small group at church, we were all talking about grace(a great topic that i totally dig, but i'll save that for another post ;)).
All of a sudden I had an urge to say "All of us are agreeing that showing others God's love/grace is a great idea. It's so frustrating that none of us are doing anything about it!! Matthew 28:19 says: Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. . .
You guys, we live in a nation, we don't need to all drop everything and move to Uganda (but that would be so awesome!) to share Gods love with other people!!! Honestly, does Agoura Hills know about this church? Do people feel comfortable enough to just randomly show up to church on a sunday when they feel led?
Those people who live across the street, do any of them come to this church?? They live across the street!
We all agree that something should be done. Talking about it is cool, but when Judgement Day comes, I don't know about you, but hearing the God of the Universe say "Well done, my good and faithful servant" would be INCREDIBLE! Lets work towards making God proud to call us His own.
We don't have to go all out right away, raising $10,000 dollars to throw the worlds biggest Jesus-lovin' party, but why don't we start something. A revolution? Why not? I want everyone to be in Heaven with me, but they aren't going to get there without someone showing them some Christ. Lets stand out on a street corner. Just stand there, no yelling and screaming, just hanging out and offering strangers a prayer or two. People long for someone to care for them, so why not us? Lets get the whole church involved and lets show Gods love to everyone."

This week all of us girls agreed to brainstorm on ideas. simple stuff, like printing flyers to put on everyones doorsteps, inviting them to come and hang out at a park and eat some food! And I don't want this to be just a ABF thing, I want Calvary and Gateway and every other church in the area to make an effort!! We all love God, so we could totally all work together to spread the word!!
