Won't you be My Neighbor
This summer, a small documentary film about the life and guiding philosophy of a man named Fred Rogers has taken the country by storm. Yes, you know Fred Rogers, the host and creator of the popular television program Mister Rogers Neighborhood. Why has this film deeply impacted so many people? Because Fred Rogers genuinely loved, believed in, and cared about PEOPLE, period! The crazy thing is God does even more! At a time when cruelty, division, and isolation mark our world, and the Church is more known for what we are against than what we are for, God is calling us to take His Great Commandment of loving our neighbors seriously. Join us the next 5 weeks as we allow God to deepen our love for Him and deepen our love for people.
