We brought 15 boxes of beans up and delivered them to Operation Blessing in Alsip, Illinois. They are a local food bank and meet the needs of about 1000 families a month. I'll find out tomorrow if they need more, and we'll get some more from Hope Development and Elim Christian Center in Orland Park. Feeding the poor is a priority for us no matter where we are.
I met some people who also spend weekends in the park where Kristin and Larry's trailer and pontoon boat is on the Tippecanoe River. We shared about Melodys Orphanage in Mexico and they might even become partners with them. People want to donate and want to know where they give. So many scams out there.
A couple rounds of golf with the guys from church, also great to see friends and supporters at Moraine Valley Church. I attended a men's Bible study yesterday morning and the leader shared that they started meeting years ago as a result of a mission trip with us. Who knew?
We'll be getting around to visiting our friends and partners in a few weeks while here. We sure thank everyone for their support and prayers 🙏.
