A few months ago we were speaking with Denise, the director of the Aurora House, about our Mission Trip to Toledo. We were explaining to her how we wanted Mission Trip to Toledo 2007 to be a gift to the community but that after it was over, we didn’t want the community to think we moved back to the suburbs of Sylvania and abandoned them.
So we shared with her our dream to be a consistent transforming presence in the community and invited the Aurora House to continue playing a key role by providing space for us to teach some classes offered free of charge about health and wellness that would benefit both the residents and guests in the community.
She enthusiastically agreed, answering an unknown [to her] prayer request for a cheap [i.e.–free!!!] space downtown we could continue doing ministry. She volunteered a classroom inside their Educational Learning Center [ELC] behind their main building that is well equipped for a class up to 12 people. She even allowed us to use her phone number to pre-register guests during the Block Party and to promote the class in their newsletter as part of their curriculum. Thank you Denise!!!
Please pray for this ordinary outreach and the 8 teams of volunteers willing to give up one TUE evening every two months for Jesus’ sake!!! First up: Nutrition [JULY 17 David & Debbie Putano]. Other topics will include: Exercise [JULY 24 Dave & Sheila Case]; Water [JULY 31 Carla Szczechowski]; Sunshine & other cancer prevention related issues [AUG 7 Dr. Marsa]; Temperance [AUG 14 Judy Riley]; Air [AUG 21 Rose Cross]; Rest [AUG 28 Dr. David]; Trust in Divine Power [SEPT 4 Pastor Mike].
