Community Meal Meeting

Last night, 4 of us GBG girls met with a wonderful group of ladies to sit down and talk about our plan for the Community meal.

We learned that there are close to, or over 100 homeless people living at a place here in Lebanon. I'll leave the sites name out of this post for privacy reasons. That is where we are planning to have this meal take place. April is the month we are looking at, the exact date is not for sure yet, but I will post that as soon as we know it. We are going to be taking grills, food, games, etc over there to spend some time with these people, to build relationships.

Imagine yourself homeless. Hard for some of us to do, because we truly are blessed...but try. Imagine living in a tent. I know if that were me, I would very much so appreciate people coming in bringing a meal and hope that there's people I can lean on.

God has such a wonderful plan for all of us. And it seems like every time we turn around, we are catching on to how some of us may have grown up with others we're working with, or someones in laws helped raise another in a wonderful church home, or how we're neighbors and didn't even know it, or how we may have crossed paths in a different point in our lives and now are coming together in this miracle of a way. It's an overwhelming feeling of your heart is going to explode and tears are just going to burst from your eyes when you think about how perfectly God has placed us all in each others lives. Didn't you know, GOD IS SO GOOD!

I personally want to say what a blessing it is to have such a wonderful lady like Beth Petty to look up to. She is always going going going and handling SO many different things in her job and also outside her work to be so involved with our community. Thank you to her for showing us such a phenomenal example!

Here are a few snaps I took last night. Sorry---when I am around just know there will be photos taken! LOL

These ladies are wonderful!
