on saturdays, we usually have between 8-20 people helping out. some bring food, some help prepare it, some take it downtown, etc. it’s always fun to be together, and to see how things work out.
this weekend was a bit different. almost everyone was busy with other things, so there was just 3 of us on saturday. and it seemed that we were short on supplies, too.
but, it was a nice day. kind of like the first day, when we sent out 50 sack lunches. (kinda peaceful, actually….) and in the end, we got to pray with several people, and meet some needs.
whether 500 or 50, it’s all good. some volunteers got the break they needed. others took care of things that needed taken care of. some served food on thursday. one lady i know took a Thanksgiving meal to a family of 4 that needed it. and the low-number-of-meals weekend was still perfect… . . .
to all of you that have helped out over the last couple of years, whether a little or a lot;Â thanks!
