the current series at our church
is based around micah 6:8
one of the challenges they set up
was an opportunity to serve with
feed my starving children
they turned the lobby of our campus
into a packing place
and over the course of a week
many people took 1.5 hour shifts
to pack meals that are sent to places like haiti and nicaragua
each package contains a special protein/vitamin powder, rice, vegetables, and soy
when water is added,
it is a meal that can provide food and nutrition to areas that are really needing it
as a small group
we decided it would be fun to get our families together
and commit an hour and a half to helping these kids
along with a few other groups
we packed
114 boxes
or 24624 meals
enough to feed 67 kids for a year
it was a great experience
to do with our kids -
to show them the impact that we can have
in even a short amount of time
