God's Desire, Not Our's...

A man's heart plans his way,But the LORD directs his steps. Prov. 16:9

Sisters Serving Sisters, in cooperation with a local church, purchased school supplies and backpacks for local homeless children returning to school for another year.

By the time SSS was ready to present the gifts on Wednesday, the evening before school was to begin, these homeless children and families had already been blessed by the love from the current Overflow host church. We were told that they were blessed by more than just school supplies. It's a good thing to witness God's work of love outside of your own ministry. It was truly a joy, but a bit disappointing, because we did not want this work to go to waste.

So, what was SSS to do?...

Quickly contact some of the local outreach services. After a few phone calls, it was apparent that God chose Santa Maria's Good Samaritan Shelter for the blessing. They were thrilled to have us donate the items and we were thrilled that they were blessed! Upon arrival at the shelter, Kristina gave us a tour of their wonderful facilities.

Thanks to anonymous donators, the families of the Children's Ministry at First Baptist Church SLO and to all the people who continually work so hard for our local shelters and those in desperate need.
