In the season where churches all over are gearing up for their biggest crowds of the year, I found it ironic at best and tragic at worst that one group wasn't talking about the Christ, but rather just doing the kind of stuff he did.
Take a look at the weekly calendar for this group for this week:
ONGOING: Collecting TOYS for Children's Advocacy Center for Denton County and Cook Children's Medical Center.
ONGOING and UPCOMING: "Coffee for the Troops" Now collecting pounds of coffee to be distributed to service members arriving home for the holidays at DFW Airport. Dates and times of distribution will be posted soon.
THURSDAY, December 11, 2008, 6-8 p.m. - ArtShow benefiting The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
SUNDAY, December 14, 2008, 3-5 p.m. - Toy Drive and visit with Santa. $1 Coffee and Hot Chocolate on the Patio with Santa and Christmas caroling. All proceeds benefit Children's Advocacy Center for Denton County and Cook Children's Medical Center.
The Group? A church? Nope. Trophy Club Starbucks.
Go on out and join them if you live close.
Location: Starbucks in Trophy Club, 501 Trophy Lake Drive, Trophy Club, TX 76262

No wonder people have trouble seeing the church for the world. There are a lot of folks doing good. What makes us different?
