I got an email yesterday from a lady who has a connection to all the churches in Joplin. She is excited about Hope and Healing- Night of Worship in Joplin July 11. She went on to tell me that on Sunday June 26th there is a Public Memorial Candlelight Observance at the Campbell Parkway from 8-9pm. The Pastors & The City of Joplin are officially asking that flags be returned to full mast following the Service to publically show a sign that hope & healing has begun. Then 2 weeks from that event is the worship night. God is so good. I wish I could accurately convey all the conversations I have had with pastors, city officials and tornado victims that have communicated the same message.
If you are contemplating getting involved with this amazing event. Please know that you will be helping to facilitate a God breathed vision. His hand has been active in the planing of this event – So much that I can honestly say I have never been a part of such an obvious move of God.
If you are in the city of Joplin this night is for you. Please allow us to just bless you. Please be willing to take a night off form the complete chaos that is part of your life, come eat a great smoked pork meal, take a deep breath and allow God to work in your heart.
If you are outside the city of Joplin then we would love your help. Prayers are very much appreciated (see the prayer list at the end of this post) Financial support is very needed www.mountainsprings.org/joplin (confidential online giving, receive tax giving credit). We also would love for you to come and help us serve the people of Joplin.
