This past year we felt the need (a God-given burden) to develop relationships in our neighborhood in an effort to share our faith. We thought we knew most of our neighbors, but the majority had never been to our home or shared a meal with us. We didn’t want church to be the only place we invited our neighbors. We began discussing the logistics of having the neighborhood over for dinner. We found neighbors that were equally burdened and a church that was supportive and could see God was laying the groundwork for our outreach. We partnered with our next door neighbors (thanks, T & J) and found logistical support from FBC. On the day Dunns

ur goal as a mission team was to partner with Redemption Hill Church in their ongoing
ministry efforts in Medford. We were able to assist RHC in several ways. Our main responsibility was to help facilitate their soccer clinic called Soccer Nights. Our team was responsible for setting up and tearing down the clinic as well as serving at the registration tables, snack tables, and as soccer coaches. We spent a couple of mornings handing out granola bars and coffee to morning travelers. We also spent a couple of mornings

an a treasure be too expensive? This question came up recently as Sandy and I spent
a couple of days visiting antique shops in the Twin Cities. It’s interesting to see the items offered for sale; some create a sense of nostalgia, others play more to our sense of humor. However, all are of value to someone. While wandering the stores, it’s fun hearing comments from shoppers. The phrases most often heard are: “that’s way too expensive, it’s just not worth it, no one would pay that price,” or my favorite, “are you kidding me?!”
Webster defines a treasure as, “some-

Connect: For Future Generations is a good example of a treasure that is expensive, but not too expensive. When we surrender our resources to God, allowing Him to use those resources to impact “future generations,” it is definitely worth it! How could an endeavor giving future generations the opportunity to receive eternal life not be a treasure of great worth?
