    With the UK General Election only 4 days away I am not telling people who to vote for but I want people to vote, and to vote for men and women who display the Beatitudes - the Beautiful Attitudes of Jesus.

    What are you looking for in your local Member of Parliament, or your local Town Councillor? Is it the colour of their tie; or is it the colour of their character?

    based on 4 ratings

    We want to control the cost of inviting people to an event. We don't know why people need an invitation to our church, so we don't accept the cost of inviting outsiders into the church.

    Who to invite? It is pretty amazing how many special occasions all of us are involved in. There are birthday parties and graduation parties, block parties , retirement parties, 4th of july, labor day. I have been blessed as a pastor to be involved in lots of special occasions for families. ...read more
