Make No Mistake: This is a Big One!
In our membership class yesterday (Beginnings) one of the people said, "There's always an outreach or activity to do here at the Vineyard to bless others. This is a generous church."
I love that! You know we're hitting the mark when people, especially newer people to the church, see that we're desiring to be generous like God is generous. I was so worn out and tired midway through this class, but when I heard this lady say that it re-energized me! I felt like we were hitting the bullseye with the things that we're doing!
Here comes the big one: This weekend the food shelf opens! Saturday morning 9:30-11:30 our doors will swing open and we'll give away groceries for free. I'm excited and also anxious to see what God is going to do! How many people will show up? How will we bless them? Will our volunteers extend the kindness and hospitality the Jesus demonstrated? I'm sure we will -- I just can't wait to see it!
Keep praying church! This is going to be another great week as members of the Kingdom!

Psalms 107...
...
3 those he gathered from the lands, from east and west, from north and south.
4 Some wandered in desert wastelands, finding no way to a city where they could settle.
5 They were hungry and thirsty, and their lives ebbed away.
6 Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.
7 He led them by a straight way to a city where they could settle.
8 Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men,
9 for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.
