Church Without Walls

   Way back, when our church was still small, we used an outreach we called "Church in the Park". On Sunday morning we would set up in Neptune park, down by the Ocean and the Pier area and have one morning service outside. Sure, we have had days of  "too warm", "too windy" and even yesterdays "maybe a little chilly", but it has been a good experience.

   Yesterday we did it again. With the morning temperatures on the cool side, folks set up their chairs in the sun for some music, some fun and some preaching of course.

   The area is great. People are out enjoying the day. Visitors to the Island, enjoying the atmosphere, stop by to listen, and some stay to participate.

   The music pulls in folks to listen, and some even get on the phone to calls their friends to tell them there is room in the tree for them.

   There was a visitor from Haiti who talked about the hope that people have down on that island.

   There was fellowship. There was singing. There was listening.

   In short, there was Worship.

   What better way to enjoy the beauty of God's creation than to worship the One who did it all, especially as a family together.

   Even nature itself was there to worship and enjoy the "fruits" of His presence.

What a great land we live in.
