Reflections From Sunday Evening

The Spirit was good and the joy evident as we gathered to serve by packing meals this morning. Oh, I talked with some who had been out of town, were new to the church, or simply did not realize we did not worship today but devoted the weekend to service. I had some great conversations.
As a result of several hundred people serving, tens of thousands of meals will be provided for hungry families. Housing will be provided through Habitat for Humanity.  Students will arrive at school and see an example of God’s beauty in creation. ( A little landscaping makes a great difference.). An Hispanic congregation got blessed and more joy will be felt. Hungry brothers and sisters received food at Lazarus’ Table. Of course Hillcrest Ministries gave us an opportunity to serve people.
It was a truly joyful and meaningful weekend as we served in the name of Jesus Christ.
It’ been a good day. I hope you’ve had a good day too.
Steve
