Once a man was walking along a beach. The sun was shining and it was a beautiful day. Off in the distance he could
see a person going back and forth between the surf's edge and the beach. As the man approached, he could see that
there were hundreds of starfish stranded on the sand as the result of the natural action of the tide.
The man was struck by the the apparent futility of the task. There were far too many starfish.
Many of them were sure to perish. As he approached, the person continued the task of picking up starfish one by one and throwing
them into the surf.
As he came up to the person he said, "You must
be crazy. There are thousands of miles of beach covered with starfish. You can't possibly make a difference." The person
looked at the man. He then stooped down and picked up one more starfish and threw it back into the ocean. He turned back to
the man and said, "It sure made a difference to that one!"

We
thought this would be a wonderful name for an orginized ministry to help churches. We have many
of our churches that are loosing numbers and becoming discouraged in the work of the Lord. If we can be of help
to your church, give us a call.
