Well we were able to serve in a couple areas today. Most of our team worked at the warehouse unloading sorting and organizing supplies that will be sent to those in need throughout the months to come. A few members of our team went down near the hospital and served food to volunteers and Joplin residence. They were able to see first hand some of the destruction and devastation this storm caused. A couple other team members went and did some clean up throughout some neighborhoods. All of them that went out to the disaster zone were moved by what they saw.
Tomorrow the majority of us will spend the day at the warehouse as there is such a need and only seemed to be a few people that would come for a short time.
I was able to meet some amazing people from all over who were spending their Memorial day serving the Joplin people. But maybe even neater was that every group, every person that we worked alongside were with a church. I was reminded once again of the powerful force His Church is when it functions out of love for Him and His people.
Love to see faith in action.
Enough for tonight, time to rest. Thanks for praying for us and please continue to do so.
Til tomorrow…
