Feed my Sheep

Just as in the days when Jesus was trotting around in his robe and sandals, as a faith, Christians love to focus on the "DO NOTs" of Scripture. Do not kill, do not steal, do not dress inappropriately and do not watch The View (that one really should be in there, if it's not). The Do Nots can be very hard to interpret sometimes. However, I like the "DO's" of Scripture. DO justice, LOVE kindness and WALK humbly with your God. FEED the hungry, CLOTHE the naked and VISIT the sick and in prison. Yup, I love those.

Two weeks ago, the Youth of Wellshire got back from BUILDING homes for the homeless. And last night, our YAX (Young Adult Christians) went to New Genesis downtown to FEED the hungry men at the shelter. Several young adults came to help prepare the caseroles on Sunday after church and then we took those casseroles, salad and desserts down to the shelter. Nine of us served dinner and ate with the men at New Genesis, sharing our stories and our food. We hope to go back again some time.


If you or a young adult you know would like to get involved with the ministry oppertunities for service, mission, fellowship and fun, contact Brian, Associate Pastor of Youth & Young Adults at: bdaoust@wpcdenver.org or search for YAX (Young Adult Christians) on Facebook.
