The early Christians feeling thus close to one another "had all things in What do the members of your church have in common? They meet in one place once a week But what else? Do they even speak to one another? If one member of the congregation falls sick do the others find out about it quickly and when they find out what do they do about it? If trouble comes to a member do the other members rally around hiip? Does the church say to its members as the Salvation Army does of hard-pressed men may be down but never Some churches have a or fund to be used in cases of need Contributors to the fund are as anonymous as are those who are helped by it The idea is for those who are blessed with large income or those who may have special windfalls bonuses extra dividends big crops and so on to chip in for the aid of all who may run into trouble Not All Troubles Are Financial Naturally not ail troubles are financial Some of the most serious troubles have little or nothing to do with money There are many other kinds of needs For example in any church there will be lonely people and you cure loneliness with a check no matter how big The minister Is the key man he can locate the needs but he supply them all Lonely people those who have been through deep sorrow men trying to find the right jobs young folks in danger of serious temptation a church which is like a family will not let these people fight their battles alone What we all need is the feeling that we belong The church can make all the difference between despair and happiness simply by making every single person in it feel that no matter what happens to him he still belongs he is more than among friends he is among brothers Gains bom Grinding Greater Ever!
