Operation Inasmuch Pintlala!


On Saturday, May 19th, 70 members of Pintala Baptist Church joined together to reach their community for Christ in a one day mission blitz of their community. Members gathered in the fellowship hall Saturday morning and were “sent out” into the community led by pastor Gary Burton (who helped cleaned a creek full of garbage) to share God’s love in a tangible way. Members cleaned a community creek that was overrun with garbage, picked up litter off of Hwy 31, washed cars near the ball park, did car safety checks, worked to clean a sick persons yard, garage and roof, built a porch for a senior citizen, did a blood pressure check and the children made care packages for deployed military personnel and Adallum House. It was a day of excitement where kids to seniors all worked together to reach their community with acts of kindness that showed the community that they were cared for by Pintlala Baptist.

Operation Inasmuch is based on Matthew 25:40, “Inasmuch as you have done it to the least of these, you have done it unto me.”

Congrats to Pintlala! They got outside the walls of their church to show their community God's love in practical ways.
I hope other churches will get on board the Operation Inasmuch train as it moves through AL.
