Actually, I think there are a lot of churches that do an enormous amount of good all year long. We just don't hear about them through the media.
A church men's group that I'm involved in actually does construction and maintenance work for several downtown missions. In the past year alone, we did construction work that would have cost these missions over $25,000 to have had done professionally.
It's not a big deal, and we certainly don't do it for the publicity (in fact, we'd rather not have publicity, because it would result in countless requests that we just couldn't fill), but it is being done. And I have a feeling that there are a LOT of other church groups doing things like that.
