From Your CHHS Service Project Coordinator...
Having the opportunity to work at Beautiful Feet was such a blessing. Being able to see God in people's lives that really have nothing else is amazing. We met and spoke with several wonderful people. The man that stands out most clearly in my mind was an African American gentleman in probably his mid 40's or so. He had just gotten off a bus from Arkansas that week with nothing, he literally was now living on the streets. Talking to him though, you would never know he had anything negative going on in his life. He stood around with a group of us talking about how wonderful God's love and grace is, and he even prayed with us. Before he left almost all of us got a hug, and I think he must have said God bless you all about a hundred times. As he was leaving, I remember him turning to me and saying, "I love this place. I'm gonna have to stick around just so I can keep coming. Everybody here is just so happy!" I smiled and agreed with him, and I thanked God that He has provided such a safe, welcoming, cheerful place for some of His children who need it the most.
