Salt

So our new ministry is getting started. Yesterday a group of students including myself went to a low income housing neighborhood to do some surveys. We basically just told them we were from Bethel and we wanted to help out in the community in anyway we could. We asked the residents if they had any specific needs for themselves or if they thought there was anything their neighborhood as a whole could use. Some of the people we talked to were a little reluctant to ask for anything, but overall we had a good response. We're going to be able to help several families out. I really had a good time getting to know the people and I think what we're doing is going to open up opportunities to share the gospel.

"You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men."

- Matthew 5:13
