The Bible mentions “the poor” more than 150 times and “widows” or “orphans” more than 100 times. This is right up there with “grace,” which is mentioned 120 times. Clearly, we are called to serve others since we all are made in Christ’s image.
We have another opportunity to answer this call and follow Christ’s example by serving others at the Habitat for Humanity’s ReStore, which is located a few miles from the church at 1161 Columbus Pike (State Route 23), just south of Delaware. Our service days will be on Saturday, Oct. 23, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and on Sunday, Oct. 24, from 2 to 4 p.m.
On these dates, we will help the ReStore with a warehouse project. The ReStore has an urgent need for its inventory to be cleaned and organized for the fall and winter.
The ReStore sells donated household goods, furniture, appliances, and building supplies. All revenue supports Habitat’s mission of “seeking to put God’s love into action” by building affordable homes in partnership with lower-income families.
The Brotherhood of St. Andrew’s and RUBICON Youth are sponsoring this event, but everyone who is at least 14 years old is encouraged and invited to join us on Oct. 23 or Oct. 24, or on both days.
Walk-in volunteers are welcome, but we do need a headcount.
