Christ’s Church Outreach
2008
The 2008-2009 Outreach Program Season kicks off with an initiative targeting the hungry. The goal is to join hands to feed the hungry, with volunteer activities and community services that give us a chance to get outside our community and participate in the joy of planting, growing and serving the fruits of our labors. We kick off the campaign this Summer, but the opportunities for involvement are year round. So, come, visit with us at Ice Tea Hour after the 9 a.m. Eucharist and sign up to share the joy. We have a special gift for all who complete three (3) or more hours of service as part of this campaign, so, come and be a part of something amazing. And the fruits of our labors will feed many.

Here are the words to the song that is playing in the video.
Thanks for Life
by Bill Cusano
Plant me out in the sunlight
Sink my roots in the rich warm earth
Make me a part
Of your living garden
Give me your living waters
Tend to me like a child of light
Show me your heart
Watch me grow stronger
[CHORUS]
Water me
Tend to me
Nourish me
Care for me
I can’t survive alone
Feed me and
Comfort me
Tell me you’re
There for me
And all the fruit that I bear will be your reward
Come to me in the Harvest
Take the weight from my weary vines
Huddle them close
With loving kindness
These are fruits of your labors
They’re the children of sun and love
Give them a home
Worthy and wanting
[CHORUS]
When the last fruits are given
When the nights have grown cold and dark
Give me my rest
Give me my comfort
Take the seeds of the new life
Keep them safe in that special place
Where I was loved
Where I was treasured by you
And say a prayer of thanks for life
And say a prayer of thanks for life
