Come one, come all! 500 bags being made this morning! I'm watching the little ones while I bag 1,000 bags of fruit... and you can come bag 500 bags of groceries... byo starbucks! It's going to be fantastic! We'll begin at 9am- 'til all the groceries are bagged. If you can't make it then consider dropping off $20 or 10doz plastic eggs filled w/ surprises... we only need14 more people to contribute...thank you JESUS! My prayer today: Dear God, I come before you this morning excited to see who will be there~ encouraged that you are already there! I thank you JESUS for all the food that you have provided and for all the families who came out last night to receive your blessing. I thank you for your word "Feed the hungry." I thank you that this world's view of what we do doesn't matter but your word brings truth and life and more than enough affirmation and encouragement to the mothers with children who are GOING4GOD today. I thank you that as each bag is filled a prayer over the bag is given to remind every person that this is a bag of your gifts~ a humble reminder that you are faithful in providing every need. I love you JESUS and I ask that you would protect every home that comes and every home that doesn't. Release from people's lives the obstacles which keep them from serving you and others~ thank you that you make it so easy I ask that those who don't come would take a moment to pray that all the tasks of the outreach would happen swiftly and safely today. Thank you for Hope West allowing the RAVEN team to invade the 4 walls of their church today~ thank you for Pastor Russ and Terry Clifford who came into this one outreach when no one else would and kept it going~ thank you that you met them there and now we sit in awe of what you are going to do next with just this one "Thursday" thing. 500 bags, Lord? Only you could have done that! I ask Father for more funds to come in to keep the children feeding children~ thank you that it is near 75 cents per grocery bag for each family~ I love you, Lord. I ask all of this in JESUS name, AMEN.
