Wow what an awesome day! The thrill of knowing that we are making a difference in the Appalachian community is inspiring. We worked along side of some other incredible volunteers today at the Beacon of Hope. We were able to help feed 81 families. We put together food boxes that we knew would help families make it through the month. The people that we met were a reminder of why we came on this trip in the first place. In need of food, and not just physical food, spiritual food as well! Someone to hug them, talk to them, relate to them, and pray with them. What a privilege it is for God to allow us this honor to help people that he created and loves!
My prayer is that we touched some lives today in a way they will always remember, and who knows, maybe made a difference in their eternity. Our evening adventure was just as inspiring. Meeting a true mountain man, whose family has been in the area since the 1830s. Learning the ways of the mountain people that lived off the land, and still do to some degree. What a refreshing experience to meet people that are unique, real, and content with the simple things in life! Thanks Dwight and Pat for a memorable evening! Seeing where your family was laid to rest on top of the mountain was breath taking! Looking forward to some good music on Friday at the Depot.
There will be plenty more to come…..
