We Hit The Spot!

Yesterday we served about 14 gallons of hot chocolate at New Albany's "Spring Egg Hunt". I was excited and thankful that my friend Jeff came all the way down from the Cleveland area to help us pull this off. Later, one of the families from our team came. We all had a great time greeting people and serving something people REALLY wanted-- hot chocolate. Our challenge for the day was braving the blustery cold and snow at this early "spring" event. Yet, at least a thousand people were present and many grabbed our warm nectar as a bit of cheer in the cold. Sharing about our work was a bit of a challenge as people were more business like due to the cold, but we still had many opportunities to put a smile on people's faces and create a positive impression for Jesus in our community. God also gave great opportunities to network with community leaders, and I think our positive involvement at this event will open further doors for service at future community activities. Praise God for a great day! Please pray with us for spiritual fruit- in the short OR long term.
