...share your food with the hungry and provide the poor wanderer with shelter--when you see the naked clothe him... Isaiah 58:7
AN AWESOME WAY TO SAY GOODBYE
Yesterday wasn't the normal Saturday we would hand out food, clothes, and the Word of God. We usually do it on the last Saturday of the month, but because we are leaving for our annual trip back home, we decided to go ahead and get'er done before we left. We had our eye doctor scheduled to come and do some vision tests, but she couldn't make it, so Paula had those that had difficulty reading sit with her and try various strength reading glasses to get a good fit. While spending one on one time with at least thirty people, she was able to pray with three people to receive Christ as their Savior. It didn't matter if they could "see", Paula wanted to make sure that they could really "see", meaning the Glory of the Gospel and God opened the eyes of three individuals to "really see". 175 families came for food, and everyone this week got bottles of juice, adults and children. We gathered all the children graduating from either kindergarten, eight grade, or high school and prayed for them and gave them a choice of a soccer ball or some jewelry Paula had bought. We sponsored Eliazar Jr. for his class ring and He was truly grateful. The bathroom is almost finished and we were able to use them yesterday. Remember when I blogged about taking the limits off of God? Well, I have to be willing to remove the limits I place on different ministries coming to get beans and rice, so when Bethany Church called and asked for some food, I told them to bring a trailer, because I was loading them up with all they could haul. NO LIMITS!!! Packing for our road trip is always a chore and we hope to leave tomorrow. We will miss Mexico and all our friends while we are gone!!
