A Day Easy to Celebrate...

He upholds the widow and the fatherless, but the way of the wicked he bring to ruin. the Lord will reign forever, your God, O Zion, to all generations Praise the Lord! - Part of Psalm 146...

Saturday was one of the best days. The weather was great! Not Marriottsville great, but San Diego great. The sun was bright and the air was dry and cool.  We had just the right number of volunteers all day.  We had a steady stream of guests totaling 27 starting at 8 AM and ending at 3PM. It was the day we pray for every Auto Care. In mist of all that we celebrated a birthday, made a lawnmower house call and provided car pick-up service. Serving was a pleasure.  Being part of the Lord upholding the widow was easy.

While we thank the guys at Napa for providing the parts, Christian Services of Howard County for supplying the support truck and the funds for the supplies, Chapelgate for providing the space, chairs, office supplies, tables, and trash cans. It is the Lord who get all the praise.

Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth! Serve the LORD with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! Know that the LORD, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.  Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the LORD is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations. Psalm 100...

Auto Care is Fast Apporaching....

Today, your Auto Care Guys begin to ramp up with preparation for Saturday.  Over the next few days we will be looking over the list of registered guest and review your auto information.  We will contact volunteers to make sure they are ready for Saturday. We will inventory our supplies, and put together an order for whatever we might need.  Finally, we will pray.

While it is the last item listed it is the most important action we will take before Saturday.  It is the one thing we do that will help us see how the Holy Spirit will use us to share more than oil, filters, and good auto advice.  It is how we continue to see this as part of God's work of bringing healing, renewal and peace to our community.

We are still looking for volunteers in several areas.  Check out the window next to the blog. It spells out what we are looking for at this time.  If you are single, divorced, separated, or widowed and have not signed up, there are still a few days to register.  We would love to be part of how God shares His love for you. 

Loving God by Loving Others,

Your Auto Care Guys
