Macedonia Family Worship Center We cleaned the whole church, repainted the Sunday School rooms, and used discarded VBS materials to create some wall art for the kids. The Macedonia community fell inside the township of Bonneau, and after a few days of cleaning in the church, we got out and walked through the community, inviting people to church. As it happened, there was actually only one person on the church’s role-an elderly lady who had not been there in a long time. The overseer wanted us to encourage the immediate community that had once supported the church to return. As we met the different families along the little side road, it became apparent that the church was a battleground among the relatives of the founders, each with an idea on what, and how, things should be done. We soon found ourselves in a war zone where a heated community battle was silently brewing. 4
