This week we had a backpack blessing at each of the churches plus a school supply drive for the schools right down the street from each church. I have been so excited about this! It was so fun to plan and I think we had a pretty good turn out too!
I worked a lot this week on balance. I've been finding myself working all day every day on church stuff and neglecting other things in my life. I'm allotted 20 a week for both churches, each, but both all together. I know it will be always be more than that but I think it's important to find balance and I did pretty good this week.
I made time for my little family, I made time to do a little pleasure reading and even for some crafting. It made my week and my family very happy so I will continue to work on this. I think it's good for me.
I'm still thoroughly enjoying serving both these congregations and look forward to lots more outreach opportunities with them both! I hope for us to be a light on the hill for their communities!
Being a blessing to others blesses you, Sherri! These were wonderful events, I'm sure, for all involved.

Thank you, Martha! I'm working on it! :)
DeleteSherri, I'm glad you're working on balance. It can be so hard to achieve balance, especially being involved in ministry. I hope you're able to find someone to hold you accountable to finding/maintaining balance!
