GE employees continued to assist other volunteers each Tuesday night. Some volunteers work in the kitchen cooking, washing dishes, and serving the food. Other volunteers come each week to provide the music as they did this week. And occasionally, someone will substitute for Paul if he can not attend. This week Patrick did a great job preaching God’s word for our edification. We all chip in to get the job done each week regardless of the work each performs. This week we served 66 meals with a total of 19 volunteers.
One of the volunteers told me that he had gone through some of the same problems we see every week. He had experienced the same addictions and even jail time among other things. He was now clean and just wanted to volunteer to show others that there is hope, and that they can go from being served to being a servant. I appreciated his testimony because we all desire to see change in their lives. That is why we come down each Tuesday night.
The above picture is one our friends. He makes walking sticks to sell. This one is not finished but it did look very good. I am amazed at the talent we see every Tuesday. One of the homeless even played the piano while everyone was eating. Regardless of his situation, he was willing to share his talent with all of us.
As a reminder, Food for Life will be on Monday (Dec. 22) instead of Tuesday (Dec. 23) the week of Christmas. We changed the night so Paul could attend. He will be leaving town on Tuesday. The following week we will return to our regular schedule.
