Amazed
Last night we had the opportunity to hang out with some really cool people, got to meet some new faces and share the love of Christ with those in need of His love. We shared a meal,fellowshiped and listened to a great teaching from God's word. We all gathered at the Emergency Shelter of Benton Harbor, who were gathering to celebrate all those who were with the program and all their accomplishments in the last year. Stories were told and shared, community was oozing from within and people were genuinely excited for one another. There was no racial/social or economical walls anywhere to be found, people just doing life together and loving on one another, oh and by the way about 30 children had a blast playing with the volunteers, having snacks and learning about Jesus...as one kid put it, this was the best night they had in a long time, but was sad to see us go and wanted to go home with us. Needless to say this brought tears to all our eyes but we know that God is on the move in big ways, we are just trying to be where He is already at work.
