Kidz Club Feed the Children Event!

This Thanksgiving we had so much to be thankful for. Working with the LifeHouse gang and Feed the Children we were given a chance to help pass out 75 boxes of non-perishable food items and much more to the three Kids Club sites that we get to help minister to weekly. The night started off with cookies and kool-aid for all and then just before the boxes were passed out the drama team performed a skit on the Love of God followed by an invitation to become a follower of Christ. I was given the opportunity to pray with two women (in Spanish) and then lead two of our regular Kids Club children in the prayer of salvation. Little voices praying to such an Almighty Father!

Applause and smiles broke out as the boxes of much needed goodies were taken to the homes of the families that attended the event. To be a part of something so much bigger than ourselves has been the best gift we could ever have received from our God this holiday season. So many lives are being changed and touched and all because of Love... Love that God has shared with us and Love that He has taught us to share with others! When I think back at how far these families and children have come from when we first met them one year ago, I can only praise God for all He has provided! We have seen over 20 children come into the kingdom of God and several families follow... LifeHouse has given us such an opportunity to be apart of God's work!
