The report yesterday on the mission day in Atlanta was awesome.\u00a0 I’m excited about the opportunities that lie ahead for The Gathering.\u00a0 So many important doors are being opened and it’s incredible to watch our people excited about walking through them.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, we had 7 people join with a great team from Birchwood Baptist Church to go down to a refugee mission in the outskirts of Atlanta.\u00a0 People from 25 countries are living in this complex and they are so hungry for love and attention.\u00a0 These are people who have found refuge in this Country not for reasons of convenience, but, as one of our team members pointed out, “they’re here because otherwise, they would probably be dead.”<\/p>\n

Man, what a great opportunity!\u00a0 I want to encourage all of the members of The Gathering to get excited about being on mission!\u00a0 We have opportunities for everybody: locally to your own neighborhood and workplace, city-wide through HaCoBaCare, regionally through the Atlanta Refugee mission, and internationally in Peru.\u00a0 The only thing keeping you from being on mission…is you.<\/p>\n
