Outreach and Ministry

Today, I read with interest a post about whether agents should farm their churches or not.  It caused me some reflection about our church lives and our work lives.  Personally, I never even think about farming my church.  People know what I do, so if they want to work with me, they can, but I'll never ask.

More importantly though, as a congregation and ministry, my church, St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Sheridan, WY is always working on bringing the "Good News" to those without it through an amazing outreach, not only locally, but also in Mexico (we build homes for families and we do mediacl missions as well).  We have a  large body and are considered by many, the "community church".  So anyway, in my reflective moment, I thought that if more real estate agents would be more genuine and reach out to people through community involvement because it's the right thing to do, rather than trying to gain business, the industry would be better off and consumers would be too.  Forget the reaching out for business in your church.  Just do the right thing.
