Grace Serves at the Union Rescue Mission

Recently, Grace and Abigail accompanied me on one of my annual field trips with my 8th graders to serve lunch at the Union Rescue Mission in LA. I've been taking students for the past 6 years and this year was the first time the girls got to tag along. As you will see below, Grace jumped in like she was already a part of daddy's class and got right to work. She made friends with my students and also with some of the homeless men, women, and children that the URM serves each day. She took her job of passing out silverware very seriously and seemed to fully understand that she was giving food to people that didn't have any. She loved every moment of the trip from the train ride to LA to the 5 hours we served to the train ride back. No complaints. No whines. Lots of smiles. It filled our hearts with joy to watch our daughter already involved in the work of the Kingdom of God! She reminds me of her mother in so many ways!
