Serve

Today was another busy day.  I think most days are busy. We headed out to our local downtown ministry to serve the homeless.  We started out early. Whatever happened to sleeping in on Saturdays?  We arrived at the church to meet up with the group and then headed downtown to start serving.  The day went well... we set up tents, started preparing food and some of the group (my 14 year old son) went out in the neighborhood inviting people.  I have to say, I did get a bit nervous but I am trying not to hover him as he is growing up (very fast I might say).

The people came.  Around 150.  Men and women.  What a set up.  The ministry is ran as a tight ship.  It is set up in a orderly manner, and the people are fed with food and  most important with the spiritual food.  Food, Worship and the Word of God.  It was a great experience!  God is so amazing that He allows us to serve Him. We get the privilege of serving and we are the ones that get blessed.
Blessings,
Kim

  1. What a fine example for your children...you are to be commended even though you had to give up a Saturday morning sleep in!
