Hi Y'all!
Praise God from Whom all blessings flow!
Well, Day 5 is almost I the bag. Ryan, John, Roger and Ashton are finishing up at the office as I am writing this. We had a very busy day today. We spent first two hours organizing the storage space at one of the offices. Because they hold their services at three locations, none of which are at the office locations, and because they hold many community events at parks, they have a ton of stuff to store and having it organized is especially important.
At 11:00 a.m. we went to the homeless shelter where we cleaned the floor, sorted clothes, raked leaves, trimmed shrubs, served lunch and interacted with the people. Ashton and John did especially well at connecting with the people. I felt as if I couldn't connect much, though I tried.
After the homeless shelter and a brief lunch, we were back organizing at the office. Nancy, our hostess and organizer in chief, said she was very pleased at all we got done.
Some might question why we came, since no direct evangelism was attempted. In fact, I have had those thoughts at times. But God brought Acts 6 to mind. We are here as servants to the church so the leaders can give their full time to the Word and to the ministries our Lord has called them to. I am greatful that He chose to use me. Thank you all for supporting us with your prayers.
Our Lord willing, we will leave about 9:30 in the morning on a plane bound for DFW and should be back in Granbury by 3:00 p.m.
I love you. God bless you.
Fred
