Because

Because who can deny a child's hand sweetly slipping into theirs.

Because who can deny tears that flow when a word is aptly spoken.

Because who can deny light in a neighbor's eyes when they agree to try out a small group with you, admitting that it's their first small group experience.

Because who can deny the sleepy head that falls on your chest, finding comfort and rest in the rhythm of your heartbeat.

Because who can deny the thrill in a co-servant's words, "Thank you for letting me serve with you!"

Because who can deny the joy in obedience.

COMMUNITY is worth every ounce of discomfort and inconvenience, . . .
