Hey guys, my name is Brittany Dail. I’m a student at North Greenville University and Marc asked me to be do the blog this week for FFL. The funny thing is, it was this very blog, that I stumbled across on accident, which informed me about this ministry at Triune. Ever since then I’ve been trying to come every week that I can. It has been really cool to tell my church, Northpointe, about it as well. When Paul first e-mailed me about this ministry, one of the things he pointed out is that he wanted for the volunteers to break out beyond the kitchen. This was big challenge to me at first, but I am seeing more and more each week where he is coming from. The opportunity to provide a meal for someone is incredible, but the chance to share with them the Good news? I think that far out weighs any physical way of providing for someone’s needs.

It has been really cool to sit down and talk to the many people that come from week to week. God has really been breaking down walls in my life as I get to know and continue serving the people that come through. Also, by building relationships, I am able to see what some of the need is among these people in my own community and as God leads, find other possible ways to reach out. Since some of my church family at Northpointe has been coming to serve lately, I am even more excited! My heart is that we will continue to build relationships and be as intentional as possible with our conversations. I also pray that we would look for opportunities to love on those that don’t always receive much love, and share what Christ has done in our lives.
