Giving Back

“But just as you excel in everything— in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in your love for us— see that you also excel in this grace of giving.” 2 Corinthians 8:7

Sarah's dad and stepmother regularly volunteer at the local Soup Kitchen once a month— the first Thursday of the month. Since we were both off of work today for the holiday, we decided to join them along with our Monday night Bible study group to give back to the community by serving the patrons of the Bristol Soup Kitchen. Although the snowy holiday did not give us the turnout the Soup Kitchen normally experiences, we were still overjoyed to serve those who came. Our feast consisted of ham, turkey, dressing, gravy, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans, creamed spinach, corn, and a variety of scrumptious desserts. It might have been a cold winter day, but we still had a great time preparing the meal and visiting with everyone.
