Civilization hangs by such a narrow thread! And how would we respond? What if it were our neighborhoods without clean water, our neighbors dying of cholera? This is why it is so important to have a church family full of committed, caring people who look out not only for each other, but also for the needs of the community.

And for those of us who have plenty and to spare, it is the least we can do to find ways to give hope to others.
