It's Getting Hot!


It's not even officially summer yet and we've already had a couple hot ones. It's a lot easier for some of us to stay cool than it is for others. Sometimes you'll even hear of older or sicker people dying from not being able to keep cool in the extreme heat.

We've already heard several people needing a way to stay cool. Providing someone with a way to beat the heat is such an easy, tangible way to improve their life. If you live in the Grand Rapids area and you have an extra fan or window unit, e-mail us at help@realtimechurch.org.

You can mail or drop the item off at:
2951 Coppergrove Dr. NE
Grand Rapids, MI 49525

If you're dropping it off, make sure to arrange a time. Let's do this!

We Need Cribs In Phoenix

There is a small crisis pregnancy center in Phoenix called " With Child." They are in desperate need of cribs. This is an exciting project to work on, because there's nothing hypothetical about it. Babies need cribs... 10 cribs to be exact. They also need bassinets, high chairs, and baby wipes.

This is an amazing opportunity to help a mother and a child with something as basic as a place to sleep.

If you live in or near Phoenix, or if you are interested in the project e-mail us at help@realtimechurch.com

Or to check their website out, go to... http://withchildphx.org

>>> New Venture


There are several reasons for the lull in communication from Realtime Church. The biggest reason is that we have been working on a whole new venture.

What would Realtime Church look like if it was based in a local church? The answer is Realtime Crossroads. Crossroads Bible Church in Grand Rapids, MI has a team that has slowly been changing its benevolence fund into something more grassroots, open, and proactive. Having the ability to respond in such a realtime, impactful, and local way is a whole new angle.

This doesn't change anything about Realtime Church. We are still ready to punch someone in the face if they get in the way of us taking care of critical needs. But it will be amazing to see what God does using some of the same stuff that RTC does, but on a local church level. Awesome!
