Thanksgiving Delivery

Tonight we had our annual Thanksgiving meal delivery to a family with Chi Alpha. This is one of my favorite things we do and I look forward to this event every year. A girl and boy small group get together and deliver an entire Thanksgiving meal to a deserving family. Each member of the small group pitches in parts of the meal, and together, we make a feast.

Tonight, we delivered to an amazing family. I think she was a little shocked at first to see a large group of people standing at her front door with grocery bags in their hands. None of us knew the lady, but she is a single mom of four children, her youngest being twin girls. It turns out, one of us has met her before, and was actually her NICU nurse during the delivery of her twins. This set of twins was also my friend's first set of twins she ever had to take care of. How amazing is that?!?

God had a purpose when he sent us to their house. They truly appreciated what we did. Her parents happened to be around too and we all joined together in prayer. Although I know they felt really blessed by what we did, I think we were even more blessed knowing this family will have a good Thanksgiving.
