SENIOR FOUND A NEW WAY TO SERVE!
Dear Pastors : I hope you enjoy this e-mail!
Please share this with someone!
My name is David: I am 69 years old ( I have a hip replacement) and I
can't do very much! I attend Calvary Chapel in Costa Mesa, Calif. I hope you
will read this e-mail. I thought it might be of some interest to you. It shows
what the Lord can do if we listen to him and then follow what he has to say!
My wife and I belong to what we call the "Red Wagon." The "Red Wagon"
is just a name for our church group that feeds the homeless on Mondays and
Thursdays. We feed aproximately 275 homeless people every week!
Over the years, I have prayed for something I could do for the church.
I can't carry a tune, can't teach, etc. Well, finally the Lord spoke to me! As
I was wrapping the forks and spoons into the napkins (Our health Dept. requires
us to do this! ) the Lord told me that we are feeding the homeless food so why
not give them a Bible Verse to take with them, more food!
Well, I finally found something I can do! I print out aprox. 275
Bible Verses each week, 25 Verses, then change to a new verse! I hand write
them, using a colored marking pen. Only three colors. Red (Title I make up )
Blue ( The Verse ) Black ( Where found in the Bible ) I print them on my home
printer ( Copier ). I get two on each sheet of 8.5x11 inch standard paper. I
cut them in half and wrap one in each napkin with the fork and spoon.
Very few people have thrown them away! One lady found hers. She had accidently
thrown it away with her napkin. She says she saves all of them! This is
something simple that
anyone can do. Maybe you know someone that wants to serve the Lord and doesn't
know what to do.
By taking the first step which was joing the " Red Wagon," the Lord
showed me what I can do! I AM REALLY BLESSED!!!
Thanks for reading this e-mail. I hope you enjoyed it!
God Bless You and Your Church
David
PS: I will share this with anyone who is interested in serving the Lord in this
manner. Please have them e-mail me. dfost@yahoo.com
***** Maybe you could put Bible Verses in Lunch Bags for the Homeless AND FOR
YOUR OWN KIDS! Just a thought!
