Storm Clean-Up

Sunday Sermon: Be the Church.

On Thursday, a tornado touched down just a few blocks from our house. Thankfully, we are fine and no injuries were reported at all due to the tornado. But, there is quite a bit of damage- mostly thousands of downed trees. In some parts of town it feels like an Armageddon movie.
Today, we were asked to show up to church in our work clothes. We had sacrament, then broke off into groups and went into the hardest hit neighborhoods to help the community clean up. People can call a city hotline for help, so that's where we started, but then neighbors came and asked for help, so of course we helped them, too.
As Camille said about wearing a t-shirt and shorts to church, "I love this!"
