So far…
This month (though it has only been a few days) has been GREAT! And I am sure it will continue to be.
We have had the opportunity to work at a soup kitchen for the last couple days. I never thought I would enjoy it as much as I do… Team Spectacle is having a blast! On our first day at the soup kitchen, we started by skinning chickens, which included cutting off their toenails. Who knew that Spectacle would have as much fun as we did with this task? It really was fun! We helped prepare the meal then got to spend time listening to the gospel being said. Some of us were then asked to share our testimonies and…. Sing! It was sweet! We then got to serve food. Loved it!
Today we had the opportunity to work in another soup kitchen. It was great to sit and interact with the people who entered. I had the opportunity to love on some kids. There was this woman who came in with her 4 children and you could just see that this woman was tired. She just needed someone who could take the kids off her hands for a little while. I enjoyed the kids so much! They exuberated life through their smiles. I just enjoyed their company as they enjoyed ours.
I also got to get to know an elderly woman. Just to talk to her, I felt blessed. She told me just a little bit about her life but just enough to know that she cherishes it. We also got to talk about the area and some good places to visit, some food to try and whatnot.
And I am falling more in love with my team then ever before! Just getting the time to laugh with each other, hangout, pray with each other and worship with each other is GREAT! I’m already beginning to see us growing deeper as a family.
God is good!
