Give an "Inlet Blessing"
Show Christ's love by giving someone an Inlet Blessing. Give a hug, buy a coffee, open a door, drive a neighbor to the doctor, send a thank you flower, carry someone's bag, give a compliment, listen, volunteer to help someone in need - the possibilities are endless! Give God the glory and leave behind an Inlet Blessing card, encouraging the recipient to pass the Blessing on to others. Let's shower the Inlet community with blessings.
Inlet Blessing cards will be available to our congregation this Sunday, April 29, at all worship services. Grab some cards, pray, don't be shy, and intentionally be a blessing to friends and strangers!
