This quick glimpse to what these families live like was live changing and wonderful. The children expressed such gratitude and love toward us even though we were doing the minimal thing of just playing with them. Love powered through this boundary and truly enabled us to make a concrete connection with these families. While collecting for the food drive we encountered many generous people who have personally been impacted by the food bank and are willing to give back to help others who are now more in need than them.
I think that this experience shows the love, or Agape, that is flowing through everyone. Whether it be the migrant families or the Agape group in general, we all have love flowing through us. But this love is more powerful when it is put together. It like an ultra love. Love x2. It shows that even though things can get bad, humans can have a way to make things feel better.
P.S. Thank you to all those who donated today at the grocery stores! Check back Wednesday to see how many families we serve at our food bank!
