“Let’s start a revolution by SERVING!”
This past Saturday, over 1,400 volunteers put on a red shirt ALL OVER the WORLD and served over 15,000 people. Yes, my people in Mozambique and Swaziland were representing in Africa, and yes, my heart is still over there. Maybe you saw the 900 in Baton Rouge either at a block party, handing out bottles of water, car wash, nursing homes, battered women’s shelter….
Mark and I had the honor of playing games at the nursing. They were so CUTE! The grumpier they were the more fun I had. We played games, sang songs, and Mark was giving all of the ladies a white rose. I’m sure they enjoyed that!
“You Are My Sunshine” is there favorite song; you have to hear them!!
Before I left for Africa, some AMAZING girls I work with adopted another coworker from Shri Lanka who only had 2 pieces of luggage and was living with a family. Within 3 weeks she has an apartment that is fully furnished and food in all of the shelves. Now I understand what what Jesus was telling His disciples in Matthew 25.
36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
37 Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink?
38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you?
39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
40 The King will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.’
