Sounds like an opportunity to be the body of Christ and reach out to the families in whatever manner the church might be able.

A lot of people came by the front of the Church & these apartments were Strata properties & I met some of the owners of the suites.

Fantastic.

Yes sir... this is, indeed, a tragedy... but the Lord could really use the situation to allow for ministry into peoples lives.

Ministering to people's basic needs often leads to the opportunity to minister to their spiritual needs as well.

I'm not sure how large your church is, but perhaps your church could start a clothing drive or something to help the residents of that apartment complex.

We are a Home Missions Church so that would be tough.

Not bad, we had a new visitor last week & he brought a friend today.
Slow go but not bad for Canada & in particular Greater Vancouver where sensuality & hedonism abounds.
