Actually....

Almost all Southern Baptist Associations have service project ministries. No kidding, our church just recently went clear down one long street in BA and repaired and painted the fences in the subdivision there. Gratis. It doesn't matter what faith (if any) you are...it's a commandment to us that we're to love one another and that's how we do it.

It's pretty stunning to people. Heh heh!

For example, if I find my neighbor has a leaky roof, I can call our association and they'll send someone out to fix it. No questions asked, no hard sell.

This is your regional convention.

There should be a more local association of churches too...what town do you live in again?

I ~really~ need a Florida room built on the back of Castle Stormhands. And I wouldn't want to deny someone the blessing of installing a hot tub to go along with it...
