Our Three Days with Chuck & Vivian



“I’m going to tell you all about my time and days with Vivian and Chuck.  It was fun to be with Vivian and Chuck.  We did a lot of fun things during are time with Chuck and Vivian.  We watched some movies on the big TV. We took Libby on a walk.  We played on the Wii.  We saw a frog and toad.”

“I had a lot of fun telling you about what we did with Chuck and Vivian.  I hope we get to see Chuck & Vivian.  I hope you enjoyed me telling you about the time I spent with Chuck and Vivian.”

“I loved that they where very, very, very nice.  They are funny and their house was very big.  They let us watch lots of movies.”

These are the words of two sisters, 4th & 5th graders who stayed with us for three nights while their mom got some rest.  This afternoon they will take the bus home instead of being picked up by us at their schools.  They were a delight to have in our home and it was fun getting up and taking them to their schools.  It was a blessing knowing that we were providing a loving service to the mom and her.  Our prayer is that this experience will be one they remember as different.  We tried to be the hands and feet of Jesus to them.  As you know, there was more to their stay than movies and T.V.  Finally, if you are not “in the game” of being the hands and feet of Jesus to the least of these, be stretched and “get in the game.”  You will be the winner.
