As my daily devotion time, I'm going to write, instead of read someone else's, daily miracles. My hope is, that by doing this, I will enrich my journey and awareness of God in the little things in my life and also encourage others to do the same. I encourage you to share your comments and stories of things that you encounter along your journey.
Blessings,
Jennifer

new

I have a lot planned for this summer. I've been anxiously awaiting the end of school so I could start. The first new thing was Mission Monday.  We gathered at the church and then went out to serve others. I had no idea who was coming. But, I was happy that we had a few regulars and then some I am trying to get more connected to the church. The best thing was having a new volunteer.  That alone I consider a success!
We went to 3 homes and surprised people with the offer to do whatever yardwork they needed. It was an opportunity for the youth to connect with people they haven't met before and vice versa.
Today,  we continued with 2 more new activities. We met for tennis this afternoon and biking this evening. Again, we had another adult join that hasn't volunteered for things but joined for tennis. And then, an adult who is not completely connected to a church right now came to the biking group. All said they plan to be back next week. I am excited that, even though I don't have huge groups for these events, I have new people or slightly connected people taking an interest in participating. Week 1-goal accomplished.
So, where was God today?  He was in the times spent in small groups building relationships.
Blessings,
Jennifer
