God Keeps Laying It In Front Of Us...

Our family has run a food bank from our home near Urbana for 17 years. We currently serve 50 families. Through God's mercy, we now have 8 local churches that participate by donating food on a monthly basis. Another local church has recently opened a Children's Clothing Closet for distribution of free clothing to families in need. This ministry continues to lift and encourage people struggling to make ends meet. God continues to lay at our feet the people who need help and the community members and organizations to provide for those families. It all stopped being about US a long time ago. Unless you've ever had this happen...you don't understand. God just puts people and situations in our path and shows us what needs to be done. We know now to be open and we wait and watch for our next assignment.
