Last night was a great outreach into our community. Spearheaded by Pastor Jeff Pfohl, our Pastor of Outreach, we gave away free hugs at the community Christmas Walk. I must have hugged over 100 people; it was great! Some time ago UCLA did a study and discovered that people need between 8-10 meaningful touches a day to be well adjusted. I got 10 times that last night! A photographer from the Muncie Star Press was in town and took this picture for today's paper...
Pastor Jeff passed out free candy canes and invitations to our church...
Pastor Marggy helped out with the hugs as well...
Kimberly and Nathan did a great job of spreading some Christmas cheer...
Finally, Shelby was willing to give her daddy a free hug, what a great night...
This is the coolest thing ever! We should do it some more places.
