Powerful Testimony


Another great Tuesday night at Triune Mercy Center; we served 85 hot meals with the assistance of 18 volunteers. Two of the volunteers are friends of ours who are missionaries from Alaska. They are in Greenville for the holidays and came down to help Paul. We appreciated their help and especially enjoyed visiting with them.

The highlight of the night was a testimony by a man who 6 months ago was on the street with his children. He testified how God has changed him and his family through the ministry of Food for Life. It was very powerful since many of the homeless knew him personally and could visibly see the impact of God’s grace through Jesus on his life. That is what we all desire for everyone each Tuesday night.

Next week we will meet on Monday night instead Tuesday. We changed the day in order for Paul to attend before he leaves on a trip to Colorado. We have been planning for a great Christmas feast and some gift surprises for all who attend. We are grateful for Adair who raised a considerable amount to fund our Christmas party. This time of year we enjoy getting together to not only experience the festive atmosphere but also to celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Merry Christmas to all from Paul and Food for Life Ministries and may everyone have a happy new year.
