Today we had our first workday of the week. We went to AYA (All You Are), Rosevelt homeowners association, In the Image, Grand Rapids Home for Veterans, Equest Center, Senior Neighbors, and Degage Ministries. We learned about homelessness and the inconveniences and disadvantages that those that are unhoused experience. This was an eye-opening experience for all of us. We ate tacos and taco bowls. The food here has been awesome. We are very well fed!
Jolene spoke tonight about love. We learned about the different types of love we can have. How God has Agape love for us. She passed around a box that held the thing that God loves the most. There was a mirror inside the box. It was a wonderful message for all of us to hear.
Jessica, Avery, and Jamie were in the worship band tonight. They rocked!
The kids have more free time tonight. They are also drinking milk shakes tonight. The cool thing about this opportunity is, the money Thereforego raises with these milk shakes will fund scholarships for students that are unable to pay for future Serve mission trips. The goal is to fund one student for next year.
