Still feeling pretty great, aside from being very tired. Body’s kind of sore from a lot of walking around, standing around, blah, blah, blah.
We had a fantastic time with our service projects today. The first was heading out to a rather busy intersection near the church with our “Honk for Hunger” signs and counted how many cars honked at us…over 200 for the day! Last year it was around 120.
Then we came back to make simple sack lunches. The kids made 27 lunches and we headed downtown to Central Park and handed them ALL out to 27 people who took us up on our offer. We had so many people request we give the lunch to someone who needs one – the kids were discouraged, but soon realized how refreshing that honesty was from complete strangers. We felt that all the people who took lunches truly needed something to eat and were very appreciative. I think we all learned a lesson today.
We just finished up with a bit of downtime. Now for the last game of the famine, some discussion and devotion, praise songs and then we’re off to break our fast (yay!) with some pizza and bowling!
I made it another year…and even more excited for the next 30-Hour Famine!
