world mission society church of God "Loving thy neighbors by cleaning up"


Loving thy neighbors by cleaning up their waste 
Volunteers with Charlotte church go layers deep into litter at West Boulevard and Remount Road

A darkened storefront on West Boulevard tells passersby it’s “All About Labor.” 
Out back, the words have been brought to life.
Here on Sunday morning, just east of Remount Road, volunteers from the World Mission Society Church of God attacked an acre of brush and woods that can be best described as three parts active landfill and one part outdoor toilet. 
Generations of drinkers and drug users have left a legacy of trash. The ground clinks with it. The air is rife with it. Several groups have taken one glimpse, one whiff and decided their community-service efforts were better directed elsewhere. 
Working with the city of Charlotte, the World Society Church of God delegation waded right in. Working in blue T-shirts and vests, they filled hundreds of trash bags and hauled away everything from animal carcasses to refrigerator doors. The more they carted out, the more they found.
“I knew it was going to be bad, but we all hoped it would be better than this,” said church volunteer James Lindsay, hacking at the overgrowth with a machete.
“It’s sad to see people treat the earth this way,” said Allison Danley, a church member from north Charlotte. “This is disrespecting God.”
The Tyvola Road congregation took on the cleanup as part of a worldwide effort by its church. The 2,200 branches of the World Mission Society are performing community service to prepare themselves for the celebration of Passover on April 5. 
Jack Kim, the Charlotte church’s missionary and coordinator of the event, said the morning offered members a chance for environmental awareness, “to cleanse our own souls,” and to love thy neighbor. 
In this case, some of those neighbors aren’t much for litter laws and personal hygiene.
“There are more politically corrects terms we could use, but we’re talking about homeless vagrants and crackheads, and they are out here every day,” said Chris Lyon, a Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer assigned to the area.
The cleanup started at 9 a.m. About 70 volunteers showed up with 100 trash bags. At 9:30, they went out and bought 200 more. 
By that time, 80-year-old David Moryas had seen the work on a TV newscast and driven over to help. Machete in one hand, the native of Kenya pointed at the nearby businesses. 
“The shop owners should be participating,” he said, “so they can know what’s going on in their neighborhood, what their customers have done.”
At the nearby Jeman Express convenience store, Kay Aho was opening up.
Does the area have a problem with loiterers? “Ha, this is West Boulevard,” he said. 
Asked if he knew what the church volunteers were doing, he retreated. “I work up here. I don’t know what goes on back there.”
Back there, two messages have been painted on the cinder block. No loitering. No p---ing. Based on available evidence, both have been ignored.
Lyon, who worked alongside the church volunteers, said police make arrests in the woods almost every day. The department and the city have also begun the legal process to get the owner of the vacant property to take more responsibility.
He looked around at the volunteers. “The church is great,” he said. 
Nearby, a small mountain of filled trash bags had begun to emerge near West Boulevard. And still more came. Mattresses, furniture, tires and hundreds upon hundreds of bottles and cans. Lindsay tossed something heavy over a fence onto the back parking lot – the gas tank of a car. 
Later in the morning, Vickie McClain sat on a rock to catch her breath. 
“I’m from Charlotte, and I know West Boulevard. But I had no idea what was in those bushes,” she said. “Look at some of those bottles. They’ve got to be 30 years old.”
McClain looked at her watch: 11 a.m. An hour of work to go. She grabbed her bag and a picker, and headed back into the brush.

The Blood Drive and Environmental Cleanup Campaign on a global scale to heal the sick earth is to be carried out in 150 countries including UK all together. It is the “2012 Worldwide Blood Drive and Environmental Cleanup campaign for the Passover” held by the World Mission Society Church of God (General Pastor Kim Joo-cheol).

The Church of God says that the purpose of this cleanup campaign is to “practice the love of the Passover of the new covenant, which was restored by Ahnsahnghong the Christ who came a second time.” The Church adds that it is also to “inform people of the seriousness of environmental pollution and save lives through blood donation.”

The campaign is to be carried out in about 2,200 places of 150 countries where the branches of the Church of God have been established; including the United Kingdom, United States, South America, Europe, Asia, Oceania and Africa will carry out the campaign together. The Church says that it will keep holding the campaign by April 5, the sacred Assembly of the Passover 2012.

As they carry it out in cooperation with government offices located in each region such as city council, public community centers, it is expected to greatly arouse people’s attention on the importance of giving blood in order to help save lives of many people and environmental pollution.

In Bury, around 100 members of the Church will donate blood and clean up the streets on 4th, 11th 18th March.

The Passover of the new covenant, which the Church regards as important, is the day when Jesus Christ promised the forgiveness of sins and eternal life to those who have bread and wine representing His flesh and blood; Jesus established this new covenant on the night before He was crucified 2,000 years ago.

Following the teaching of Jesus Christ, the Church of God keeps the Passover by eating bread and drinking wine in the evening of the 14th day of the first month in the sacred calendar every year.

As it is name imparts, the Church says that disasters pass over that disasters pass over those who keep the Passover. It originated from the Exodus when the Israelites were protected from the disaster by putting the blood of the lamb on the sides and tops of the doorframes of their houses.

The Church of God believes that Christ Ahnsahnghong is God in the age of the Holy Spirit because he restored the Passover of the new covenant, which was abolished at the Council of Nicaea in A.D. 325 after Jesus ascended. The Church of God says that it is the only church in the world, which keeps the Passover of the new covenant, following the regulations of the Bible on the correct day. This year, the Passover falls on 5th April.

The Church of God keeps the seven feasts in three times according to the Bible including the Resurrection Day and the Feast of Tabernacles as well as the Passover, and it is known as the church that follows every regulation of the new covenant-the Sabbath, Baptism and the regulation of veil.
