KJS: A Christian's duty should not end with the weekly worship service. Christians must extend their efforts beyond the physical building to reach people within the community who are in need.
VOL: True. Christians should do this and many are. My own parish is full of people working in the community rebuilding houses in nearby neighborhoods, involved in water projects in Haiti and spreading the gospel in countries overseas. WE are a church of 600 people. We are orthodox in faith and morals. (That's why we are 600 and not 70). Your average Episcopal congregation has about 70 members who are well on in years and have little incentive to do anything except survive and involve themselves in the altar guild.
