Spring Break

Well, I finally got my pictures from our College Spring Break trip on my computer. Here are some of them.
We spent some of the time doing work and beautification projects. Here's Esther and Sparky doing some work:



















As most of you know, this trip was all about working with homeless people. On Thursday night we held what was called a "Love Feast." We went and personally invited homeless people to come for a sit-down spaghetti dinner. When they arrived, we seated them, brought them food, and then sat down and ate with them. It was a great time for conversation. Here are some pics of students during the Love Feast.











































All in all, the trip was great. One of the things that is great about Bridgetown Ministries (with whom we partnered) is that there ministry is very relational. As you can see from the Love Feast pictures, the focus is not simply to feed people. The focus is to listen, talk, and relate personally to people who have either fallen on hard times or have made decisions to abandon the system and live freely on the streets. God really did some neat things as far as personal connections.
Anyway, if you want to read more about the trip, you can check out David K's blog, where he has his thoughts on the week: http://perpetualanticipation.blogspot.com/2007/03/week-of-passion.html.
