Makers' Market at the Christ's Church Cathedral, Hamilton, Ontario

Christ's Church Cathedral      Makers’ Market was started by Cathedral volunteers as a way of providing local artisans with space and opportunity to market their craft. This church knows who they are and why they are here: they are a "place of community, compassion and hope", and the are "Praising God in heart of the city".
 

Beside the beauty of the place, it's a beautiful thing that the church shoved aside its pews to make room for the Makers' market.

Jean's Flowers (Indoor)

It's called a "Christmas Cactus" because it tends to bloom around Christmas time.  Jean has it blooming at many points in the year.  This photo was taken near the beginning of November. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlumbergera  And just in case: http://www.wikihow.com/Care-for-a-Christmas-Cactus

Intentional and Geared-Up
On our morning walk (usually along the Grand River), saw this guy fishing.
Do you think he'll catch fish?  Of course he will. If I sit on the shore watching him, will I catch any fish? Of course not.
So I thought about the church;  if the church is as intentional and geared up to catch people, to 'fish for people' as Jesus said (Mark 1:16-17) ... well, you see the point.
And yet churches sit and wait, and are bewildered why they're not 'catching' anyone.
