God's Love for Us and Others...

Last Saturday we held our Winter Auto Care Saturday at Chapelgate Presbyterian Church. The temperature was cold, but not as cold as the previous day nor the day to follow. There was snow on the ground, but none on the pavement. That allowed our guys to work on the ground without getting both cold and wet. We did not have every volunteer we desired, but we never felt overwhelmed or frantic.

It seemed that every time we had any reason to feel anxious, God would intervene and remind us that this was His event. Because He wanted to care for these women, He provided the best weather of the weekend. Because He knows we grow tired and discouraged, He limited the number of guests who could attend. Because He wanted to feed a homeless family, He provided two lunches for our volunteers. One we ate and one we gave to the homeless family.

As you prepare to celebrate the birth of Christ, we hope the events at Auto Care will remind you just how much He goes out of the way to show His love for you.

• Melissa C
