Posted in Uncategorized on October 2nd, 2006 by His HolinessDescribe one problem you see within your local community (Jo-Davies County, your school, your group of friends or similar) AND describe one way in which the church (either as an institution or as individuals) can work to help correct that problem.
Be specific.

One of the biggest problems in my groups of friends is that some of their families do not have that much money as the others and they make fun of them for that.Some of the people I know at school do not even have a phone.I think the church as an institution or as individuals could raise money for things that they may need or like new clothes,school supplies,and other needed things.Or we could donate money to the food pantry so those people that need to use it would always have something to eat. That is one of the problems that I see.

Some of my friends don’t go to church or believe in god. I think that is a major issue for me. They all say that they want to be confirmed but they don’t even put in the time or effort. I tell them to start to go to church. Even if they start now, in a couple of years they will be confirmed. I think the church as a institution or as individuals can just convince people to come to church. Anybody they know is somebody that they can ask. If the person doesn’t want to go to church, then they can do things for the community. Plant flowers at the park, or maybe just donate some food to the food pantry. There is never to much food to be sent. This is a problems and these are the ways that we can fix them.

One of the biggest problem of i see with my friends is that some of them dont like to talk about how their family is doing. I think Church should try to help them as in a coucil meeting with just their family and try to talk it out with the family and the kid. Some people at my school dont have no phone or computer at their house. I think Church should try to help them as in rasing money for the phone. I think Church should always try to get invole with school or their kids at Church to see what is going on and maybe the Church people could try to donate their money or even try to raise money for the school or the kids if they need help.

One of biggest problems with religion today and in my school is alot of people don’t go to church cause they think that its pointless and its not “cool”. Sure they say they belive in god but i don’t think they truly know who god really is. And they are so caught up in there other things (like nothing) that they don’t have time to go. I think the church could put togather a group so all of your friends could be there but the only problem with that would be, again, “It’s not cool”.
