Welcome to the South End “Love Your Neighbor” Challenge! This 8-week, church-wide challenge is designed to help us in the South End community cultivate meaningful relationships with our geographic neighbors.
Can you name your 8 closest neighbors? What about your regular grocery store clerk? Your mailperson? You might be surprised that very few Americans can. A recent survey discovered that 66% of Americans report having no meaningful relationships with anyone in their own neighborhood.
This week: Pray. Pray for God to open your eyes to see the neighbors God wants you to see. End your prayer time by reading Matthew 7:7-12. Then identify the immediate neighbors you wish to focus on for the next 8 weeks, and pray for the people of that area. These can be the neighbors on your street, your apartment/retirement complex, your work, school, or here at the church.
