The oil spill in the Gulf
of Mexico has disrupted many lives and ecosystems, and it looks like
this will be a
true disaster. As we look for ways to help, we must also remember that
our need for oil is part of the reason that these companies can have the
power they do. As we look to support the people in those areas affected
by this tragedy, let us remember the people whose lives depend on the
water and their families, the birds, reptiles, and marine life that are
incredibly affected by this tragedy, and let us remember our part in it
as well. Here are some organizations that you can give to that
will help. Pastor Aaron

In Matthew,
Jesus told his disciples to "Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations,
baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy
Spirit: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I command you: and
lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen"
At St. Bart we are blessed to have members who care about fellow members and
the surrounding community and strive to fulfill Jesus' instructions in Matthew.
We also have the words of our
Mission
Statement to guide us in these endeavors. We care by welcoming visitors, refugee assistance, crafts for the
needy, Bible study groups, youth ministry and
other activities.
