Heroes of the Week

My servant-heroes this week are the members of our seniors ministry. Many churches offer seniors ministries that basically involve older adults getting together for lunch. They're a lot more of a fellowship and a lot less of a ministry. Our seniors group seems determined to change the tide.

Last week they took homemade pies to some of our local police and fire stations. Just a practical way to show Christ's love and our gratitude to these people who have committed to protect us and our families.

And then some of our seniors (namely Nevin & Pat Reese, Mary Lou Riggenbach, Sharon Layman, and Eva Bright) took a trip to the Ronald McDonald House and baked brownies and other goodies for the families staying in that facility. These families have critically ill children who are receiving treatment in Children's Hospital or another medical facility, so the potential for meaningful ministry is sky high.

Props to our seniors! You're this week's ACC servant-heroes.
