Downtown Homeless Ministry
Northland Church organizes a group to be a part of the Homeless Ministry Team every other Thursday night. This team provides food, clothing and items to the needy in downtown Orlando. This was selected as the Volunteer Vixens' January project... and our FIRST project together as a team. Around 10 signed up to participate, with a total of six actually showing up (things happen)... what an amazing experience! We participated in worship, devotion and ministering to the homeless. Meals were served and the devotion held in the St. George’s Orthodox Church parking lot. Some of the Northland worship team was present and the sounds filling that parking lot were amazing. Talking to the individuals as they stood in line was heart touching. Four of us stayed the entire time and participated in the ending prayer with both the volunteers and several of the homeless that were still around. Truly an amazing night. I've decided to go back and participate as often as I can on these Thursday nights. I can't imagine anything better I should be doing with my time. If you'd like to join me... sign up here:
