Get a load of what's been going on at our Church!

 

Thanks to the generosity of the members of the Miami Beach Community Church, Christ Congregational Church, the law firm of Hinshaw & Culbertson, and the employees of Terremark Worldwide, Inc. we received over 200 toys, all of which were given away at a Christmas Party for over 100 children, held on December 21st at the Homestead Campus for the Community Partnership for the Homeless.  Take a look!

 

It started with a van-load (or two!) of toys:

And Andrew the Elf (that's him in the blue shirt, checking on the toys) - PS: Lyn and Pia are back there, somewhere, too, along with Morgan and Kathy!

And then, on January 2nd - the first Sunday of the New Year, we had not one but two beautiful Baptisms:  Julie and Amanda Rodriguez!

 Our June 15th, our Pastor took part in a prayer vigil with the other members of the South Florida Interfaith Committee for Worker Justice, demanding living wages for the condo workers and building maintenance people who clean the buildings managed by The Continental Group.  (That's Pastor Bob, holding up the middle of the banner).
