Remember a while back when I told you about our giving out some books (101 Ways to Reach Your Community) and some money to our people at Life Church? Well, listen to a couple of their experiences - more to come later:
Jenni Reid writes: You gave me a great idea today when you mentioned the woman at the well. I wrote John 4:13-14 of the front of 10 Life Church cards. I wrapped a dollar bill around each card, and Chris and I are going to tape the cards on drink machines around Athens. Just wanted to let you know since you asked for feedback.
Jenn Tomasevic writes: Hey, This was really fun! I have had the 10$ since you gave them to us 2 weeks ago and felt like they were burning a whole in my conscience-JUST DO IT! Was playing over in my mind. I had a few ideas, but I think the Just Do It was the fun part...I got dinner at Sonic tonight and decided to unload my "conscience" there! I asked my server about it and said I wanted to give him a bigger tip too and he said he'd have to ask his manager. I waited and the manager came out to talk to me. I told him that our church was challenged with this 10$ to go and show the love of God to people in a real way. He asked me about our church and if it was non-denominational and such questions, then said sure that the car hop could do it. The carhop came back out and I said " Okay, are you sure you feel comfortable doing this?" and he said yeah, so I said " You can just say sth. like this crazy lady came by and wanted me to give you this dollar off your meal and a card to her church." That was about it, we introduced ourselves and all too. I guess it just was a very fun rush to do it-I am excited to hear about what others have done. I don't feel all that original about it, but I "just" did it!
Like I said, more to come! Send us your story.
