The Church In Crisis

During the months of September and October, our Wednesday night adult activities will focus around the topic of The Church in Crisis. No, we are not referring to a problem at AFCC.  Our focus will be on the Biblical, historical and geographical mandates that compel the church to reach out to our immediate community in times of crisis. Much of our thinking on this subject has been prompted by AFCC’s recent decision to become an Orange County POD (Point Of Distribution) Site.  In other words, when there is a major earthquake or the need to quickly inoculate  5,000 people against some pandemic, AFCC will be ready as the place to receive people who need help in time of crisis.

Our studies and presentations on this topic will begin on september 8 and continue every Wednesday night through the month of October.   I’ll be working with Joanne Gray (our Parish Nurse) and some important state and county leaders, to present a series of sessions to help make everyone aware of why we need to be prepared and the pragmatic steps that each of us can take to become prepared.  Please go to the announcement section of this site in order to learn more about the special speakers coming to AFCC this fall. In fact, you can print out a flier about the first speaker and give it to a friend along with a personal invitation to attend our Wednesday night sessions.
