I have attended only a couple churches over the last fifteen to twenty years, and only stayed with the churches that allowed the poor in for the sermon and fed them before they left.  I understand the story about the rich man  and Lazarus, how he died and was at Abraham's side while the rich were in a place of heat and thirst.  That is the story I had spoken of to John. I still pray for John though it has been over a years since I have seen him.  Last I saw, him, he was living in a hotel.  All are welcome to pray for this man.  
Thanks you for writing.
