These mattresses et al have been sitting outside the church for over a week, at a property with a bad track record of exterior building maintenance. The items were moved from leaning up against the side of the church to the curb by what looked like church members yesterday, Sunday, just before services. Please hold property owners responsible for what gets dumped at their front door. We are all responsible for the sidewalks in front of our properties. This church, which does not pay taxes, is asking everyone else that does pay taxes to deal with its problems. Unfortunately, it appears this congregation does not understand the concept of teaching through example.

Amen.
