Hi Everyone,
Today was our last day with the kids here in Philadelphia. The past four days, there has been a group that has gone to the local food shelter. This has been a blessing in disguise. God has shown us that the world we live in as "Michiganders" is very privileged, and yet we can be extremely unthankful, while those who are in Philadelphia struggling say they are blessed. We are even ungrateful for our food many times. I had the opportunity to eat what the kids in Philly have to eat. I finished what I had been given only because a little kid was watching me.
Yesterday we were challenged to talk to at least 3 people about Christ. On average today, each person talked to about 4 kids.
After this week I have learned that, I do not need to go on a missions trip to go and teach people about Christ. We have the opportunities right in Western Michigan. We just need to go and serve.
