GREAT NEWS - Jackson, TN
 
My mother just called me with two very cool things....

1.
The Northside Assembly of God church, which is 1/4 block from where lighthouse was hit, has opened their church for full use until the church is able to do otherwise.

This AG church is a BRAND NEW mutil million dollar facility that seats 1200.

I personally think that speaks well of the AG and the spirit of working together.
We may not agree doctrinally, but this is when its time to step up to the plate and be a help.

Amazing this is there are 3 other UPC churches in Jackson...and it was the AG that came to the rescue.

2.
Charlie Gibson (Good morning America) also hosts World News Tonight, has contacted Bro. Lance....they are sending their camera crews to the church to film and televise the first service after the storm.
It will be televised NATIONALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyways....what an awesome report out of the tragedy.

The kids from Union University that have been interviewed on national news have been able to testify about God being with them too!

You can always turn bad to good!

The other UPC's probably didn't think of it right away... the tornado damage is barely days old...


Why is everyone assuming the worst of the other UPC churches? This is just as bad as if the other UPC churches had deliberately not offered.

I do appreciate the AG church offering.

Oh, will you guys knock it off, Maybe GOD is orchestrating this and is going to use if for His glory! How does anyone know for sure that offers have not come from the UPC. I would find it very hard to believe that they have not offered help as well. Good Grief.
