Today I celebrate the character of Woods Chapel Church
we reflect the whole body of Christ, that is working, that is healthy
the heart works
truly accepting/truly diverse
all races
many varied beliefs
several political and social streams
the hands work
compassionately in mission
feeding the hungry
caring for the homeless
sending money when the call is too far away
The feet work

we are afoot...bringing new of the caring love of Jesus Christ
