See & Fill a Need

Why litter? Biblical – God’s responsible stewards Understandable – world language Democratic – no PhDs required Active – don’t be lazy couch “tatties” Effective – visible & tangible Dramatic – stoop down to lift up! Collaborative – making connections with

other people & groups…

Gehenna = Rubbish Dump

Pray for Witness• Q: Why are you doing that?• I believe God loves you & His creation

so much…• Many people have forgotten their

responsibilities & need reminding• Christ commands me to forgive my

enemies & turn the other cheek…• Children learn from a good example

Practically…• Bring garden gloves & plastic bags• Work in pairs (“though one can be

overpowered, two can defend themselves” – Eccl. 4:12)

• Use bins available in local areas, asking permission of homes or businesses where necessary (spreads the message further!)
