This past week our ASB/MS students prepared "perfect potatoes " - using the baked skins to make delicious appetizers (that we ate!) and the main pototo to prepare a sensational potato casserole. Our casseroles were shared with a family recovering from chemotheraphy and another with family dealing with loss and grief. During our sharing time this week our middle schoolers were introduced to the concept of "Humility". Our teen mentors shared a drama demonstrating what being humble means in today's world of a "me first" mentality. We know God calls us to love others and put their needs first before our own. We hope that this message is heard by those who participate in Buddies as well as those who are the recipeints of God's love through us.
There is so much pain and suffering in our midst. We are blessed to to be able to take a basic life skill such as food preparation and turn it into a way to bless families in need of love and encouragement. It is a humbling experience.
For those of you who are so generous in giving financial support to Buddies - please know that your gifts are shared in many ways. We need you, we are grateful to you and we love you!
