Last Saturdays Outreach
Last Saturday went well. It was good not to have a huge agenda and having fun making a difference in others evening. As the colder months approach my thoughts go to why I was moved to begin this journey. While I have a home to lay my head and my comforts and beautiful family and blessings from the Lord how can I help and love people who for whatever reason are not as fortunate and can truly be suffering from the circumstance on the street. Be advised that conversations are happening about how things have seemed to turn more transactional on the street as of late and we are keeping our thought process on how we can be more relational and intentional when we interact with others. Please pray for direction on how we can truly make a impact that can help make changes and give hope for those we come into contact with.

It'll always be a process to learn to be more relational. It takes more work to bulid relationship anyway. It takes intention to ask questions, stop to talk, pray for someone, etc... Actually, for someone who is new altogether to homeless outreach, it is a big step to interact with people who you may not be used to being around. I understand then that it might take awhile to learn to engage with people.
I have not been able to attend for many months now, but I am all for thinking through this and continuing to work toward fostering relationship with people as our number one goal.
