Group two update (Daryl, Braden, Jamie, Beth, Kendra, Chloe, Andrew, Micah, Nic, and Jake):
Today was round two of helping out at the Children Learning Center with Salvation Army. The guys and girls of our group spilt up as there were multiple places where help was needed. The guys joined the kids at the pool for most of the day; while the girls helped work on the plans for the VBS starting tomorrow. Since time is limited we are trying to squeeze multiple lessons into a few days while teaching the kids important ideas about Jesus. Thursday will be the opposite as the girls hopefully will go swimming while the guys help with the lesson.
As evening came we headed off to the East Boston Community Soup Kitchen. We helped serve a delicious Italian meal of chicken, pasta, rice, salad, corn, and soup. All the food was donated by a generous restaurant. The Soup Kitchen runs every Tuesday for the community. This soup kitchen is quite new, being only a year and a half old and is thriving. We served about 40ish meals and they receive everything by donation. When the night wrapped up Sandra, got to share her Cinderella story. What an amazing, yet hard, journey God has taken her on. Please pray for her and her husband as they continue this beautiful journey God has placed them on. She started just with a few people and a passion to help those in need.
For supper we enjoyed a delightful Mexican meal and walked around a small portion of Harvard Square (Daryl may or may not have forgotten where we parked the car).
Signing off for the night! Sleep well friends and family. Thanks for the prayers already.
Beth, Kendra, and Jamie
