Local Missions

We this last week was amazing! I got a chance to help out with local missions on March 17, which was also my anniversary! Hillside Christian Church was originally going to go to Mexico to build houses, but with the recent killings going on, they decided to stay in town and help out locals. We worked along side CIA (Christmas In Action) and repair four houses. The houses needed anything from a simple paint job to replacing facia boards around the entire house. We also got a chance to serve at Faith City Missions. You never realize how many people are homeless until you serve at Faith City. Faith City is an awesome organization. They have put together an awesome facility and help so many people get back on their feet when they are just down and out. Helping out on my wedding anniversary was so much better than thinking about ourselves. If you have never got a chance to serve others, try it sometime! Faith City says they will take walks in at anytime to help them out. You learn so much about yourself when serving others.
