What is the most loving thing you can do for the people who live on your street or in your apartment building? This seminar, led by Chaplain Rich Carter, will focus on one idea: becoming intentional in getting to know your neighbors and building friendships with them. You will learn ways to literally apply Jesus' word "to love your neighbor." God calls us to love and serve others, regardless of whether they are seeking Him or not. This is not a blueprint for winning your neighbors to Christ; rather, it provides an opportunity for you to be a genuine friend to those around you. If you are a good friend, they will notice that some things in your life are different.
Email Rich Carter at msl2row@gmail.com if you wish to attend.
