Hello Hello Everybody! Happy last week of February. I mean if time isn't flying then I don't know what is. There wasn't a whole lot that happened this past week honestly, but it was still a pretty good one:
Thursday was a pretty good day because we were able to meet Shakara in person. It was her birthday so we made her some nice homemade cookies (mommas recipe of course) and took them to her. You know the cookies are good when they get the approval from a Jamaican. If there is one thing that I've learned since being in quarantine is that video calls do not do a person justice because she is a whole lot younger looking than what she looked like in the call haha. But it was super awesome to finally meet in person. They are such an awesome family that just absolutely love the Gospel.
We were also able to get out and shovel some snow for some people in the area. Remember how we don't accept money from people because we do it out of the kindness of our hearts, well there was this one lady that gave us a box of cookies instead because she knew we weren't going to accept money. Well little did we know that she taped and envelope with cash inside on the cookie tin which we didn't see because she wrapped it all up. That was pretty funny because we have convinced everyone so far to keep the money, but she was thinking outside the box and hit us with the little "oh I just made you cookies" and then slipped the cash inside the cookie tin. I guess some people just really don't want to accept FREE labor.
1 John 4:19 is a quality scripture and it says,
"We love him, because he first loved us."
Take some time to ponder over that verse throughout the week.
Well Remember keep on smiling!
