We're back from a nice family vacation to Carolina Beach. We left on Sunday and got back last night. We really needed the break and we are always eternally grateful to Larry and Tammy for allowing us to get away to their personal paradise.
Now we're ready to get back in the groove! Bread/milk pick ups and distributions will resume this Friday and Saturday.
Tonight we'll be heading out to Twin Circles to touch base with the kids about school supplies. School starts back next week, and we are teaming up with Working Faith Ministries to make sure local kids have what they need to start back. Working Faith has been collecting school supplies from their members and we will go out tonight and get a list together of kids that will be able to use the collected items. The distribution will be on Sunday afternoon. So if you have any school supplies that you'd like to donate - it's not too late! Just give us a call or shoot us an email.
Dean is also going to begin working on a project he's had in his mind for a while now....and it's very exciting for us :) It's a city cross walk of sorts....and you'll just have to check back for more details as he gets it all together. Please begin lifting us up in prayer for this Cross Walk and pray about how you can get involved. We would love to have you join us!
There is also a dinner and gospel singing that's being held in Creedmoor on September 9th. There are some great gospel groups coming to sing that night. Tickets will be only $15 - and that is for the concert and dinner. It's not a fundraiser for us though. And at this point I'm not 100% sure right now what our involvement is going to be - but I know we'll be there and at least getting the word out about our ministry and how people can get involved with us and reach out to the community. We might be able to provide a little entertainment, like a song or skit or something....but we'll just have to see how that goes. We're not exactly sure yet. No doubt we'll do what the Lord leads though.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day - and thank you as always for your support, love, prayer and friendship.
If everyone could please keep me in prayer I would greatly appreciate it. You know "us women-folk" are emotional beings and I've just been doing some extra struggling in that area lately.
Loving Radically Through Christ,
Melissa
