Good Neighbor Center

We are living in the “me generation” where we are so used to getting everything our way that we forget about people who are less fortunate then us. We have a self-serving kind of attitude that is focused on what we can GET instead of what we can GIVE. So we brought the youth group to the good neighbor center right before christmas. Ok it wasnt easy getting some of the kids to go...
First of all it was a Saturday morning, I heard some say:

“ but that’s the only day I get to sleep in!”

It took a while to remember what “sleeping in” meant but then I remembered, back to the days when i didnt have a morgage, wife, baby, business or any responsibility whatsoever! lolz
And then i heard some say:

“That sounds boring I don’t want to go!”

Then I reminded them how they were always willing to go to a concert, movie or something fun but when It comes to helping someone else they don’t want to do it. I think they got the point.

We had a great turnout.
We help sort clothes food and wrap presents. May and Denise run the Good Neighbour center and May was saying with the youth group there on Saturday we got about one years worth of work done in one day! Not bad.
It was amazing to see how well the youth worked and got along with each other. One lady that works there was saying how impressed she was with the kids and she has a new faith in our young people.

I think every kid had a great time, and many want to do it again. We are Blessed to be a Blessing
