Adopt A Block!!!!!



today was the first full day, we don't start our classes and our actual full days till monday but today we had the option to do "adopt-a-block" where different groups go to different areas and they hand out food and things people need, the one I was at was in walking distance, we loaded all this stuff in the pictures plus tons more and there was a line a quarter of a mile away, they were handed tickets and when they got there ticket called they could go and get stuff. we were there from 11-230. the people could only take so much stuff from each pile to ensure everyone got something. The pile I worked with was the movies, which I thought why do they need movies? but then I realized something that not all these people have cable and a few movies could help, and anything that could bring a family closer together helps...today was such a blessing, they do this every saturday and the next big ministry thing is tuesday, most ministrys on the streets like going outside the dream center where im staying is tuedays, thursdays, and saturdays so those days keep me in prayer especially. thank you for all your prayers I know you guys care.
