The Church has Left the Building

So often when we think of Church, we think of a building, a Sunday morning, songs, speaking and lunch afterward.  Many Pastors and Church leaders spend time at a desk or keyboard or trapped in an office somewhere.  It seems as if in Jesus ministry much of His time was not in a building but out with people.
We have been prompted to in the last few months to leave the four walls of our facility and move our office out into the streets.  More and more I want our church to be "In Missoula, for Missoula."

One project we have just started is called "Street Teams."  We were given a twelve passenger van, filled it with tools and lawn-mowers and we have started hitting the streets with a Free Yard-work Service.  Wait, whats the catch?  Many people are used to solicitors, Religion Peddlers, and Vacuum Salesman pounding on their doors.  We have been knocking on doors to serve those who cant serve themselves and love on the City  we get to live in.  We cant change the whole town but we get to help one home at a time.  We have found people seem suspicious at first and then warm up to the idea when we serve their needs.

We have several needs as this project starts to expand:
1) Workers:  We go out every Friday morning and need more help as work increases and we are still looking for a crew-boss to start a Saturday Street Team. You do not need to be a skilled craftsman, just have a heart to help people.  We mow lawns, clean yards, pick weeds, and more extensive projects as well.


2) We are meeting at 7am tomorrow for a special roof installation and need around 3-4 workers.


3) Finances for Vehicle Graphics:  we have a van that could be a rolling billboard.  It just needs the graphics.  If your business wants to sponsor our vehicle graphics we would love to note that on our van.  This will also give us credibility and exposure as the van goes through the city.

4)  Tools: if you have tools to donate they can be dropped by during regular business hours.

Thanks for your help!
