above video for our thanks to all who served at a pretty good church.
what a buzz...over 300 people showed up for our outreach...mostly newbies...
we divided up into three teams and car pooled to the area housing apartments where we have been serving and caring over the last few years...It was planned chaos...most handled the chaos well...we are hearing story after story how the people we touched were overwhelmed by God's love shown in a piratical way...
some wept.
others hugged.
some thanked.
most received prayer.
one mom on our team stated, 'we went to a single mom's door...all she had in her apartment was a table. it put my life in perspective...i'm not going to complain about my old couch any more.'
...I often say, you can't really care until you've been out there....
we left at 10:30am and were finished by 12:00 pm just in time to see the Ohio State and the Michigan game.
a great buzz...in the end we served near 400 thanksgiving dinners to those in need. not a bad day for a pretty good church
here's a great song we sing often to remind us of why we are living on Terra firma.
Let Us Be
Robbie Reider
Verse 1:
Take our hands
Move our feet
Break our hearts
With the things that make Your heart break
With the things that make Your heart break (2nd time)
Chorus 1:
Let us be Your hands Let us be Your feet
Let us be the love that longs for those in need (repeat)
Verse 2:
Spirit move
Across the land
We invite You
To move on earth by Your sovereign hand
Come and move on earth by Your sovereign hand (2nd time)
Chorus 2:
We will be Your hands We will be Your feet
We will be the love that longs for those in need (repeat)
