Challenge

Our challenge for this week:
“Be the change you wish to see in the world.”
Quote attributed to Mahatma Gandhi.
Challenge inspired by the story of Shiphrah and Puah
and how they changed the world; Exodus 1:8-2:10.  
 
Change begins with you. This week, you have an opportunity to help those impacted by Hurricane Harvey by giving through UMCOR monetarily, make flood buckets, volunteer, or give some other way. See earlier communication or this week’s connexion e-news for more information. You also have an opportunity to serve at Shepherd’s Heart Food Pantry this Saturday, 9/2, by serving with your church, FUMC Taylor, 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. 


Challenge: Connect With Someone Different From You

This past Sunday, as part of breaking down the wall of division that we construct around ourselves, we were challenged to take a step toward reconciliation and connect with someone different from ourselves, whether theologically, politically, socially, economically, and so on. Checking in, how’s it going?
