Today At The Dump







Anita, our neighbor, gets up and starts cooking the food to be taken to the dump every Wednesday morning around 3:00. Three o'clock in the morning. Ugh! She prepares the beans and rice and has it ready for Marc to leave at 9:30. Anita has a huge servant heart. She does things for this community and for other church members on a daily basis. She has been wanting to go to the dump with Marc. Today was the day she got to do that.


Anita is a prim and proper older lady. She probably does not even own a pair of slacks. She gets up and cooks in a dress. She went to the dump in a dress today. After they arrived at the dump, she got out and, without hesitation, crawled up in the back of the truck to serve rice. Dress and all.


She was deeply touched by the people she saw at the dump. She served each bowl of rice with a smile on her face. It was a very calm day serving today. Marc thought it was like Grandma is here and we are behaving.


We are so thankful for all Anita does for the church, the community, and the dump ministry.

That is precious. I'm so glad God used Anita to continually bless many.

Nothing is possible without having the "Anita's" that work behind the scenes. Glad she got to go and see how the food she cooks blesses people

God bless Anita and her heart! I am so glad to read about her and see her picture. It must have been an overwhelming experience.
