We have been working on a service project with our homeschool group, family, friends and neighbors......making sack lunches to take and distribute to the homeless who come to a ministry called BetterWay located in the inner city of Columbus. We are set to take them tonight to a "mini" service with some praise and worship and short message. After the service has ended then those who are there can take the lunches and any left over can be taken out into the streets and handed out. Kev, Zach and I are going tonight to participate in the service and help hand out the lunches. The amount needed is 75 and at last count I had 125 in my van ready to go, so we will have extra to take to the streets! Thanks to the homeschool group, family, friends and neighbors who participated and made the sack lunches! What a blessing....and I know most of you put a note in the sacks about the love of Jesus to encourage those in need.

What you are doing tonight with the sack lunches sounds awesome. Have a great time and be sure to let us know how it went. Your vacation sounds like a lot of fun. I have always thought that vacationing in an RV would be a great way to go. Good luck on WW. My MIL has dropped a ton of weight on there program. Their new cookbook has some awesome recipes in it if you're interested.
Love ya,

Stace, Just got caught up on all that is going on. Hope you find a new van soon, sounds frustrating. Your service project sounds fantastic. Can't imagine all that went into making those sack lunches. Hope you get to rent an RV for vacation and get to see Melissa, how great that would be.
Love you, miss you.
