Day 79: The Change Continues

Today began with Street Teams; another excellent morning of service for the local community. We returned to the Towers to offer cleaning services and chat with the residents; today was all chat, and it was a blessing. We had a few deep, intimate conversations with a few residents; sometimes that's all it takes to make the effort worth it. Being good company for lonely people is always a great way to minister to them through love and care. After the wonderful morning, we had a period of time before we would be summoned to help run the evening service. I was assigned to Meet & Greet, which is basically socializing with visitors and things like that. I got to really connect with a guy named Ryan, who has been in Australia for about a week and came all the way from Alaska to just get away from the normal life. It was cool to hang out with him before, during, and after the service, and as he was chatting with others, I felt that that's all it took from me tonight to contribute to God's plan. I'm excited for tomorrow; can't wait to serve some more!!

God bless,
Steven
