Love Granbury Kindess Explosion

Warning!! The greater Granbury area is getting to experience a Kindness Explosion this coming weekend, April 16th and 17th! It's the 4th Annual Love Granbury Kindness Explosion. So exactly what is "Love Granbury Kindness Explosion?"

Well, it's really simple - Love Granbury is all about the unified local church being the hands and feet of Jesus Christ in tangible ways in the community and loving people into a relationship with Him. The primary component of the Love Granbury model is an annual event we call "Kindness Explosion". The Kindness Explosion is a two-day event that focuses on what Jesus told us was the two greatest commandments…to love God with all that we are, and to love all others as we love ourselves. During the Kindness Explosion weekend, local churches of varied denominational backgrounds come together to love God through worship as one unified Body of Christ. This year's event kicks off this Friday evening at 7:00pm at Acton Baptist Church with a community wide worship service. All local churches are invited to attend and worship together! On Friday evening Love Granbury is very excited to welcome Dr. Al Tizon, Professor of Holistic Ministry at Palmer Theological Seminary of Eastern University and Director of Word & Deed Network (http://mail.granburyhomes.net/horde/services/go.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.worddeednetwork.org%2F) as our special speaker for the evening.

Then on Saturday morning, each congregation goes out to love the community through acts of humble community service - all to the glory of God! These community service projects can be in the form of free car washes, mowing yards, roadside litter pick up, passing out soft drinks and many other types of community service, all free of charge and with no strings attached. Most importantly, they serve as a powerful and tangible expression of God’s love for everyone in our community. In other words, being the Good News…Sharing the Good News! We call this the "Kindness Explosion." The Kindness Explosion event starts at 10:00am as members from nearly twenty local congregations fan out all over the greater Granbury area performing various community service (Kindness) projects. Look for people all over town wearing the distinctive white 'Love Granbury' tee-shirts with the big red heart on the back." The Kindness Explosion event will wrap up Saturday afternoon at 3:30pm with a celebration service at Acton Baptist Church.

We believe that there is no greater witness to a lost and hurting world than the church, as one unified body of Believers, reaching out in genuine love and compassion to the community tThrough humble acts of kindness. In fact, our mission is - through the overflow of love from a unified Body of Christ - to help our community see who and how God truly is (1 John 4:12)!! We seek to redefine the church in our community by actively planting seeds of God's unconditional love in the hearts of every man, woman and child in this community!
