A Service Challenge

I wanted to remind everyone about the need for Terry Knicely. He is home now. Annette has been helping him with the government supports. I plan to help him, as soon as possible, make a trip back to his father's to pick-up his stuff. He's living with Gretchen at Greenglen Apartments. His biggest need currently is a job, but that is hampered by the high doses of medication he's on. He is sluggish and his speech is partially effected.

Right now, he simply needs some people to spend a little time with him. Good ideas would be to take him to a movie, out to eat, or invite him over for awhile. The problem here is that you would need to provide the transportation and probably pay for the event. Please give it some prayer and thought.

I think of Terry as a service challenge. To me, he is a test. If I'm unwilling or unable to share my life with him, then how should I expect reach others. There's a sense in which Terry is the answer to the prayer for Sunshine to grow. Not just him, there are a number of folks in and about our fellowship that challenge our abilities to serve. God has given us opportunities to allow Him to work through us. I feel we need to embrace these challenges and let God mold us. Growth might be the by-product of our own transformation.
