[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Society has moved away from church but oftentimes a church community really steps up at times like OP is describing. [/quote] Not always. I thought we had built up community in our Congregation and among friends. I taught RE for 15 years, DH and I were on committees and even chaired some. We participated in food trains and other things people needed through our Congregation, neighborhood, school communities. But when the time came when we needed extra help and asked for it, nada from our congregation community. It was really eye opening. I pulled way back and our circle is much much smaller, but I know who will be there in a pinch. I now have two or three people I could call in a pinch, but it took thirty years to get here. [/quote]
