For those of you with questions, don't hesitate to leave a comment. Anyone can get involved. It's all about giving back to the community...sharing with others; being thankful to God for what you have and what you are able to give.
This time we chose a community in Maryland (around Mende- under the bridge sha). Our locations are totally random so if you have an idea of a community we can visit next, please let us know :). At first, the community elders didn't want us around. They said, "we don't need (your) charity" however we saw the situation in that area and thought we could just move to a neutral spot and whoever visits gets blessed ;).
Anyways, here are the pictures of yet another successful outreach.
We had about 12 boxes of Indomie noodles, 40 bags of pure water sachets, 500 hard-boiled eggs (11 of those crates courtesy of STYTIG FARMS ;) ;) ). I'd like to toot my own horn though- I BOILED 330 EGGS ALL BY MYSELF that morning. #phew# That's a whole lotta work though.
Back to the pictures now:
You may not see the barbecue as a big deal, but I did. It was pretty thoughtful to treat these people the exact way we would like to be treated (The Golden Rule ;) lol). And dannnnnng, that barbecue was super tasty #delicioso.
We also provided our people with free medical consultations, vitamins, supplements, and a little confidence-booster (pep talk).
It got pretty crowded though.
Here's a sample pack for each person to take away. It contained noodles, an egg, a piece of bbq chicken/ turkey; plus a sachet of water :)
Shout outs to the wonderful donors for this great impact to our community. Big shouts to everyone involved in this event and especially to the volunteers. God bless us all.
('cuse my photoshopping skills :p i did tell them to make sure I was included in the group shot 'cause I had to leave earlier #hehe)
But, Yaaaaaaaay!
Please make an impact in somebody else's life. #WhatWouldJesusDo :p
