However, I am thankful for two opportunities I have had recently. About two weeks ago, Amos and I headed to downtown L.A. to help the Los Angeles Mission prepare for their Thanksgiving dinner. We wrapped plastic ware, packed food boxes, and taped up Thanksgiving greetings around the building. It was a good day. We both really want to go down again, hopefully some time (or times) before Christmas.
Today I went with some friends from church to a toy wrap with Children's Hunger Fund. I saw several people I knew from Master's. Our table wrapped little white Beanie Baby bears. All of the gifts (100,000) are going to be given to kids from Southern California to Ensenada, Mexico.
It feels good to serve. I have not served in a while because of time, location, apathy, etc. I hope to make this a more regular part of my life as the opportunities continue to arise.
Where can you serve in your area???
