We are back in full force hitting the neighborhoods with food bags and the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are focusing on a particular Spanish and Haitian neighborhood. They are beginning to become familiar with us and are more open to hearing what we have to say. As we arrived at one family the young man came running out of the yard to receive the fresh bread and food bag and was repeating, " you wont believe it, but we (and pointed to the 8 other people on the front porch) were just talking about how great it would be if someone came by and gave us bread. Seriously, we were just saying that", he said. I then had an opportunity to ask him if he knew who the true bread of life was. He said yes and then I shared with him Jesus to make sure he truly knew. It was a great moment!!!
We were also apart of a community outreach who fed over 300 people, while trying to implement the gospel. We see so many people doing good deeds but without Christ being the focal point. We can meet a physical need with these food bags and food outreaches, yes, but if we don't meet their spiritual need they will remain starving and never be satisfied. We are seeing many ministries leaving out Christ and it troubles us deeply. Our purpose as Christians is to share the Good News of Jesus Christ, His death and resurrection. The hope we have is in HIM. Amen
