I'm away this weekend at my youngest sister's wedding on Vancouver Island and so I'm making the muffins ahead of time (sorry folks, they won't be oven fresh this Sunday). According to our young adults, these are the best muffins they have ever had. One said, "I don't even like muffins, but I like these!" She was referring to the blueberry oatmeal muffins and they were hanging out tonight as I made them.
We now have three couples serving monthly in our continental breakfast ministry and couldn't be happier! While I enjoyed doing this every week, it seemed selfish of me to rob others of the same joy. Teaching others the process forced me to create an instruction book and reflect why we do what we do. Here's an excerpt...
"The people that walk through our doors are more important than any program or budget, so be flexible, loving, hospitable, gracious, friendly, and caring. People come first… not the donation jar or carpet. We communicate love by…the quality of the food; the cleanliness of our equipment and facility; the presentation of our food; and the gracious, generous heart of Jesus others see in us."
So come out this Sunday and enjoy some freshly thawed muffins! Following the breakfast we will worship Jesus together and then hear a great message by our very own, Dave Parsons! See you next week.
