At NCC, we are always talking about how our actions need to line up with our words. Words without action are devoid of power. Words without action are just lip-service. Words without action are just empty promises.
We are so excited to announce that we are hosting the 2nd annual fair-trade bazaar. Actions, matching words!
With the able leadership of Cheryl Lynn Cain, and our great partnership with Crosstown Church, NCC will be hosting HOPE FOR THE HOLIDAYS for three consecutive days in December.
We need volunteers, and we need you to get the word out about this unique opportunity for us to offer a hand-up instead of a hand-out. This is greater than charity because we are offering people dignity by paying them for using the gifts that God has given them.
So, if you are interested in amazingly unique gifts made by gifted artisans from around the world, then join us at NCC on December 3rd from 6pm-9pm/December 4th from 9am-noon and 6pm-9pm/December 5th from 9am-5pm.
May our actions always match our words,
Neil
