Lonely Church

This past Sunday I took Brayden to Knotts Island Methodist.  It is so sad to see how the church has lost so many members.  Many of the older people in the church have passed away and the younger generation simply is not there.  I can understand completely that by the time the weekend comes everyone feels exhausted and it can be difficult to set an alarm clock for Sunday.  However, I hope people on the island will consider taking their children to the church and get the church back to what it used to be at one time.  I know that most of the pastors we had on the island became people I could trust.  I could go to Robert and Betsy Green anytime I needed to talk and many teenagers do not have that kind of outlet. Thank you to those people who continue to do more than their part on Knotts Island.  I hope Brayden will grow up knowing that church is not just a place, but part of his family.
